Full event details

Working in the laboratory in the Young Scientist Centre (YSC) at UCLan, Students get to experience what it would be like to work in a forensics lab investigating a fictional murder. They will evaluate the crime scene and suspect DNA samples using fibre analysis and modern molecular biological techniques including restriction digests and gel electrophoresis. This workshop is a great introduction to genetics and forensic analysis and ink analysis by TLC chromatography.

During the day students will receive an introduction to the Forensic Science courses on offer at UCLan and the careers they will progress onto. They will also receive a full tour of the campus including projects recently completed as part of the Master Plan and the development in progress of the Student Centre and New Square.
