The Forensic Investigation, Research and Education (FIRE) organization, a student group at UNT Health Science Center, will walk students through the processing of a crime scene, from proper evidence collection and handling to testing a sample in the laboratory. In the lab, they will explain how a sample is treated to obtain the DNA and how the DNA is used to create a profile. Participating students should have some understanding of cell structure and function but the focus will be on laboratory techniques.
