Whether you are a true crime junkie, or someone just interested in the basics, this crash course will illustrate how real-life forensic science happens in the crime lab, and will demonstrate how evidence from the scene of a crime gets examined by modern-day Sherlockian scientists in order to bring truth to a mystery. From blood spatter to DNA analysis to fingerprints and beyond, this course will present a light but interactive delve into the forensic sciences, where participants will be challenged to apply what they’ve learned to find clues and solve (fictional) cases presented at the end of each lecture!
