• Question: Hi i'm a Gryffindor too! My question is what are you currently working on/ inventing and is there a possibility of making a machine drone to help the police that can scan fingerprints?

      Hi fellow lion!

      I’m currently currently working on estimating someone’s age from a drop of their blood. I have developed a method that can analyze blood and a mathematical model that can use the results from this analysis to calculate the age of the person that the blood belongs to!

      I think the police already have a machine that can scan fingerprints and run them through the database really fast to find any potential matches, but the idea of a drone is very interesting, imagine if they can scan for fingerprints without even being there! Maybe you should join us in forensic science and help design it.
