Michele and I gave a presentation at this year's IAI called Fingerprint Mythbusters. This was my portion of the presentation which deals with some old notions pertaining to Friction Ridge Examination and the assumptions that underlie them. Michele has agreed to let me narrate her portion of the presentation and put it into video form as well, so I'll be posting the link to that within the next week or so. Michele's portion deals with research within the discipline and examines the assumptions made.
Enjoy.
