About our service
Our medical experts, known as pathologists, work in public hospitals and modern labs. They work with scientists, technicians, and support staff to quickly and accurately study samples.
The Forensic and Analytical Science Service does independent analysis for the NSW criminal and coronial justice systems. It also tests environmental health for public health units in NSW. The service provides help to Transport for NSW, local governments, and other groups.
