Using cutting-edge science to solve cases and prevent acts of crime and terror. That’s what the FBI Laboratory has been about since 1932, when our first crime lab was born. Today, it’s a full-service operation, with some 500 scientific experts and special agents working in a state-of-the-art facility in rural Virginia, traveling the world over on assignment and providing forensic exams, technical support, expert witness testimony, and advanced training to Bureau personnel and partners around the globe. Whether it’s examining DNA to help determine guilt or innocence…analyzing the fingerprints left at a crime scene…or linking exploded bomb fragments to terrorists, the men and women of the FBI Laboratory are dedicated to using the rigors of science to protect and defend the nation. |
