The Application of Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) in Forensic Science
Deoxyribonucleic Acid (DNA) technology has fundamentally transformed forensic science, providing enhanced precision in investigations and legal proceedings. A recent lecture at the College of Science, University of Baghdad, analysed the ethical implications and responsibilities associated with this technology. The landmark O.J. Simpson trial from the 1990s exemplifies how DNA evidence can significantly contribute to the exoneration of wrongfully convicted individuals. This case serves as a compelling illustration of the transformative potential of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology, fostering optimism regarding its substantial impact and significance within the field of forensic science.
Establishing comprehensive legal and ethical frameworks is essential for ensuring that deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) technology functions as a beacon of justice while safeguarding individual rights. These frameworks govern the collection, storage, and utilisation of genetic data, underscoring the significance of informed consent guidelines. As scholars and practitioners in the fields of forensic science, law, and ethics, you hold a critical responsibility in maintaining these ethical standards.
