Maria Sol Rodríguez Calvo is a Professor at the University of Santiago de Compostela, affiliated with the Faculty of Medicine and Dentistry and the Department of Forensic Sciences, Pathological Anatomy, Gynecology and Obstetrics and Pediatrics. She is a member of the Institute of Forensic Sciences "Luis Concheiro" (INCIFOR) and leads research within the GI-1739 Legal Medicine group.

Her research focuses on Legal and Forensic Medicine, particularly the biochemical analysis of human hair keratins for medico-legal identification purposes. Her work bridges molecular biology and forensic applications, contributing to individual identification techniques in legal contexts.

The trends in her research, though not detailed in specific publications here, center on biomolecular markers in forensic science, with emphasis on tissue-specific protein variability and its application in criminalistics and legal diagnostics.

She earned her doctorate from the University of Santiago de Compostela in 1991 with the thesis titled Analysis of the variability of human hair keratins: medico-legal applications, supervised by Dr. Ángel Carracedo Álvarez and Dr. Luis Concheiro Carro.

Maria Sol Rodríguez Calvo is actively involved in forensic research through her affiliation with INCIFOR and the GI-1739 research group. No grants or advising roles are mentioned in the available text.
