Saturday DNA! Dust Away Crime

TheDNA Learning Centeroffers hands-on laboratory experiences, camps, and public programs that make complex science accessible, exciting, and fun for everyone—from middle schoolers to adults.

Join us to learn about the fascinating field of fingerprints!

Regeneron DNALC

For over a century, fingerprints have been used in criminal investigations. Because an individual’s fingerprints are unique, they can be used to link a suspect to a crime. Join us to learn about the many ways criminologists use fingerprints and try some modern techniques for fingerprint collection and analysis.
 In this activity, participants will:
• analyze your own unique fingerprints;
• learn how to dust for prints; 
• attempt to match “suspect” prints to “evidence.”
A﻿ges 10-13, one adult chaperone required. Chaperones must purchase a ticket and fully participate in all program activities.
