Corinna Kruse is an Associate Professor and Senior Lecturer at Linköping University's Department of Theme (TEMA), specializing in Theme Technology and Social Change (THEME). With over two decades of academic experience, she has established herself as a leading researcher in the anthropology of knowledge production and transfer, particularly within forensic science and criminal justice contexts. Dr. Kruse earned her Filosofie Magister (Master's degree) in Social Anthropology with minors in Biology and Law from Hamburg University in 2000. She completed her Doctoral degree at Linköping University's Theme Technology and Social Change in 2006 and was awarded Docent (equivalent to Associate Professor) in Social Anthropology in 2014. Her academic journey reflects a consistent focus on understanding the social dimensions of knowledge production across professional boundaries. Her research investigates how knowledge is produced, transformed, and transferred across professional contexts, with particular emphasis on forensic science. Through extensive ethnographic work, she has examined how technical evidence moves from crime scenes to courtrooms and the complex 'alignment work' required for different professionals (police, forensic scientists, prosecutors) to collaborate effectively. Her work reveals how knowledge maintains credibility while crossing professional boundaries through continuous negotiation and translation. Dr. Kruse has expanded her research beyond forensics to examine knowledge transfer in occupational healthcare and parenting education. Her most recent work explores how knowledge gains credibility through quality work and accreditation, examining the intersection between knowledge practices and bureaucratic standardization. Her publications consistently demonstrate how standardization both legitimizes and shapes knowledge production in practice. Current Research Projects: Kriminaltekniker som gränsprofession (Crime Scene Technicians as Boundary Professionals) Förpacka, förhandla, förändra (Package, Negotiate, Change) She actively contributes to academic networks including Antroforum (as coordinator) and the P6 research collective (Body, Knowledge, Subjectivity), which investigates social, cultural and philosophical aspects of technology across different professional practices. Her work bridges anthropology, science and technology studies, and criminal justice research, offering critical insights into how knowledge functions across institutional boundaries.
