Forensic Science

Forensic Science Feature Writer: Melissa Murfin

Forensic Science deals with both life and with death. DNA, Cloning and Stem Cell Research fall into this category. So do all the details of a crime scene like ballistics, fiber analysis, forensic dentistry, toolmarks, poisoning, wounds, forensic sculpture, accident investigation and many more.

Wherever we go and whatever we do we always leave traces behind. No matter how microscopic, they can be detected through the growing and evolving discipline of Forensic Science - the tool that brings criminals to book and solves many mysteries.

TV Shows like the CSI series, Dexter, Criminal Minds, Bones, Without a Trace, Crime 360 and the Court TV channel have certainly done a lot for forensic science, some say positive, others disagree. In fact they have created what is referred to as the CSI Effect.
