Digital Evidence
Cyber forensic researchers
designed a device to extract
the memory of a mobile phone
for crime scene evidence.
The phone's memory card is
placed in the device where
computer software extracts
and decodes the

Baking Out DNA
Forensic scientists
analyzing bones found in the
Gobi desert discovered that
the DNA within them could be
surprisingly easily
extracted. In an experiment
designed to mimic the
conditions that affected

Changing the Face of History
Using 3D laser scans of
sculptures and processing
images with math-based
computer software, forensic
anthropologists are making
life-size models of George
Washington at ages 19, 45,

CSI: X-Ray Fingerprints
Ordinary invasive
fingerprinting techniques,
such as dusting, are prone
to damaging evidence.
Micro-X-ray fluorescence
images fingerprints without
touching them. By

Computer Science Analyszes And Predicts Crime
Engineers at the University of Virginia have developed a new program, called web-cat, that allows police to easily access crime data online -- and spot trends that show what types of crimes happen ... > more -
Biochemists And Engineers Create Fast-acting Pathogen Sensor
Engineers invented a device to bring air samples into contact with genetically engineered biosensors in the effort to detect dangerous biological agents. The technology uses multiple collections of ... > more -
Computer Scientists Develop Portable Evidence-Gathering Tool
Investigators on a crime scene can now use a new tool for collecting chemical or biological samples. The sampler gun collects samples on a cotton pad -- eliminating direct contact with anything ... > more -
Biochemists Develop Diagnostic Tool to ID Strains Faster
Biochemists have developed a new tool that can identify a strain of influenza in hours, instead of the usual days or weeks, potentially speeding up the development of new vaccines. A sample of the ... > more -
Pathologists Use Digital Imaging to Speed Up Cancer Diagnosis
A new digital microscopy system allows doctors to examine biopsy tissue and diagnose breast cancer within hours instead of weeks. The same instrument can be used for all kinds of cancers, and it ... > more -
Radiologists Use CT Scan To Diagnose Ancient Causes Of Death
Medical physicists used computed tomography to compose a picture of the body within an ancient mummy. The scan provided more detail in both bone and tissue than a conventional x-ray. The three ... > more -
Materials Chemists Apply Photonic Crystals to Forensics
Photonic crystals -- materials with precise patterns of gaps that make them reflect only selected wavelengths of light -- could soon replace the traditional ink-based fingerprinting. In a new ... > more -
Psychologists, Human-Factors Engineers Design Computer-Generated Educational Outings
Psychologists Janis Cannon-Bowers and Alicia Sanchez are part of the team that created virtual reality field trips -- not just for fun, but to help children learn. Employing some of the latest ... > more -

Psychiatrists Can Now Predict An Individual Patient's Response To A Drug
The first in a new generation of gene microarrays, computer chips that chemically or electrically express DNA, can predict how a person's body will metabolize about 25 percent of drugs on the market, ... > more -
Microbiologists and Astrobiologists Help Kids Discover New Species
Extremophiles are microbes that have adapted to extreme environments, such as Utah's Great Salt Lake. But new microorganisms can be found in everyday places, and scientists are showing school kids ... > more
