Don’t worry — Dr. Doss' Principles of Biomedical Science students at CTEC are on the case! 🧬🩸

Today, we kicked off our Forensic Science Unit, and we’re determined to crack the case of Anna Garcia! But first, we have to follow the evidence, connect the clues, and uncover the truth behind what happened to Anna.

From conducting polygraph tests and analyzing hair and fingerprints to running toxicology examinations, sequencing DNA, dissecting organs, and SO much more, our student investigators will use real-world biomedical science techniques to piece together the puzzle! 🔍🧪

🕵️‍♂️ Who’s responsible? What does the evidence reveal? And can our future forensic scientists solve the mystery?

👀 STAY TUNED… the truth is waiting to be uncovered! 🩸🔬
