I grew up with J. Edgar Hoover. He was the G-man, a hero to everybody, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation was the big, feared organization. He was ahead of his time as far as building up forensic evidence and fingerprinting. But he took down a lot of innocent people, too.

I was first exposed to the idea of macro-molecular sequences while I was a postdoctoral fellow with Jack Strominger at Harvard. During that time, I briefly visited Fred Sanger's laboratory in Cambridge, England, to learn the methodology of RNA fingerprinting and sequencing.

We have experienced an utter explosion in investigative techniques. Walk the streets, look at the cameras! They are now recognising people automatically from photos; we have DNA fingerprinting, infrascan photos that can identify you from the veins in your face.

American Scientist

Thomas Hardiman

I volunteered at Ayuda, in the office, on a regular basis, and I did everything from fingerprinting and interviewing persons of Hispanic origin who entered the country without inspection and who were seeking work-authorization permits.

My brother, a cardiologist, was among thousands of Muslims visited by the FBI in November 2001 and forced to submit to special registration fingerprinting, his photo and information forever in Homeland Security's files.

Egyptian Journalist

Caitlin Kittredge

I've been on this kick reading about the beginning of forensic science: autopsies, fingerprinting, psychological profiling. I've been reading a lot of books about forensic anthropology.

American Author

Patricia Hewitt

I have very real concerns about the civil liberties implications of ultimately requiring every resident to submit themselves for compulsory fingerprinting or some other biometric test.

British Politician

Ann Coulter

We should be fingerprinting environmentalists... They are out to destroy the country.

American Journalist

Used by authorities to confirm a person's identity, especially in legal situations.

Identification Tool

Helps connect a suspect to a crime scene through matching fingerprints found on evidence.

Crime Linking

Often part of security checks for jobs or when traveling to ensure individual's backgrounds.

Security Procedures

Refers to the method used by forensic scientists to solve crimes.

Forensic Evidence

Widely used in various security systems to grant access based on fingerprint matches.

Biometric Authentication

In biology, it's about analyzing unique DNA patterns to differentiate individuals.

DNA Analysis

DNA fingerprinting helps prove biological relationships.

Parentage Testing

In computing, it raises concerns about privacy since it involves tracking users' activities.

Online Privacy

Can refer to creating unique identifications for electronic devices.

 was demoing this new process that he called "collagen fingerprinting." It turns out that different species have slightly different structures of collagen, so if you get a collagen profile of an unknown bone, you can compare it to those of known species,

 So contrasting the absorbance of red to infrared light provides a chemical fingerprint to eliminate the blood vessel size effect. Today, an emerging medical sensor industry is exploring all-new degrees of precision chemical fingerprinting,
