Prof., Anatomy & Physiology Edit This Profile Email: Katrin.Koel-Abt@fsw.edu Phone: (239) 489-9262 Extension: 11262 Location: HENDRY GLADES/CURTIS B-103 Office Hours: Please see syllabus for each course. Department: School of Pure and Applied Sciences Biography Dr. Katrin Koel-Abt is a highly skilled and passionate forensic anthropologist and previous death investigator with a PhD in Biology/Anthropology, and nearly two decades of experience working in the academic and forensic sectors, collaborating with governments, military affairs, and law enforcement agencies. Dr. Koel-Abt was recruited by the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency (DPAA) in 2012 because of her expertise in bone histomorphology. During her tenure from 2012-2107, she served as a forensic anthropologist, lead of the histology section, and alternate DNA and evidence coordinator in the field and laboratory with experience in Germany and Belgium. In collaboration with the U.S. Army, Dr. Koel-Abt developed a research project on tooth increment analysis for accurate age at time of death and season at time of death estimation for categorically “unaccounted” service members. This project won the Annual James W. Bass Research Award honoring remarkable research projects from the Department of Clinical Investigation at Tripler Army Medical Center, Hawaii, in 2017. In 2014, Dr. Koel-Abt deployed to Vietnam to train medical staff of the PAVN Institute in Hanoi in bone histomorphology. Prior to her assignment with DPAA, Dr. Koel-Abt worked as lead forensic anthropologist at the Charite Medical Center in Berlin, Germany, to identify and repatriate human remains as a result of potential war crimes from Germany’s Colonial era. Dr. Koel-Abt has over two decades of experience in biological anthropology, bone pathology and bone histomorphology. Dr. Koel-Abt also serves as an independent on-call recovery expert, is on the editorial board of two international scientific journals and does reviews for peer-reviewed international scientific journals. Dr. Koel-Abt has launched an interdisciplinary pilot study titled Advanced Cadaver Scent Differentiation in Canine Search Teams: A Pilot Study in Post-Hurricane Recovery Settings, involving Anatomy & Physiology students at Florida SouthWestern State College. In collaboration with a retired Lee County Sheriff's Office K9 trainer and the District 2 Medical Examiner’s Office, the project trains cadaver dogs to distinguish seven distinct scent profiles, aiming to enhance search and rescue protocols in disaster-prone regions through realistic post-hurricane simulations.
