Forensic investigation of crime includes the use of scientific methods to study past events for criminal justice delivery, often to reconstruct unknown events associated with a crime scene. Considering the importance of forensic investigation of crimes, including biology, fingerprints, DNA analysis, ballistics, evidence tracing, voice analysis and toxicology, the Department of Forensic Medicine and Toxicology, JSS Medical College, JSS Academy of Higher Education and Research had organised a three-day Forensic Fair from Dec. 19 to 21 at JSS Hospital premises on M.G. Road. This Weekend Star Supplement features some of the important aspects that were displayed at the Fair and identifies the small set of people in Mysuru who are making a difference in the field of forensics.
