Join us for an exciting and educational presentation by Dr. Cas Kramer, Honorary Associate Professor at University of Leicester as part of Science Week 2024. Explore the fascinating world of DNA and its powerful role in modern science and criminal investigations.
In this engaging talk, Dr. Kramer will delve into how genetics research and DNA fingerprinting has transformed both historical research and criminal justice. You'll learn how DNA fingerprinting can be used to prove innocence in criminal cases and strengthen arguments of guilt — although it doesn't guarantee absolute certainty.
Additionally, discover intriguing genetic traits, such as tongue rolling and hair on the first knuckle, and gain insights into how these and other features are passed down through our DNA.
