AiS Challenge Team Abstract

Team Number:    069

School Name:      Shiprock High School

Area of Science:  Biochemistry

Project Title:        Forensic Science

Forensic Science has a vast field of study. Which we have narrowed it down to learning about the defects of DNA testing. We want to learn more about it and how forensic investigators find the criminal by there DNA.

For example, if someone would kill another person, and the killer left some DNA behind. Then the police department that investigated the crime scene and wasn't careful of handling the evidence. The DNA evidence would be useless because it is inaccurate. That is a defect of DNA testing.
