Eoliocht Fhoireinseach Eireann, Forensic Science
Laboratory will be giving a talk at the White Lady Art Gallery. Sherlock Holmes remains a great inspiration for forensic science in literature, especially for the way his acute study of a crime scene yields small clues as to the precise sequence of events. He makes great use of trace evidence such as shoe and tire impressions, as well as fingerprints. ballistics and handwriting analysis, now known by the police as questioned document examination. Such evidence is used to test theories conceived by the police, for example, or by the investigator himself. All of the techniques advocated by Holmes later became reality, but were generally in their infancy at the time Conan Doyle was writing.
