Yesterday I found out I got all A’s for every module I had this semester, that’s 4 A’s! This means that for my 3rd year overall grades I got a total of six A’s and one B! So that’s me officially got a Bachelor of Science degree in Forensic Psychobiology with distinction! Now I only have my Honours year left! This picture represents exactly how I felt last night!
Forensics Recovers Fingerprints from Foods
Forensic scientists at the Univ. of Abertay Dundee have recovered latent fingerprints from foods – publishing the UK’s first academic paper on this subject.
Foods are notoriously difficult surfaces to recover prints from, so are often overlooked as items of evidence. However, by modifying an existing technique that was initially designed to recover fingerprints from the sticky side of adhesive tape, the team at Abertay have shown that this need no longer be the case.

My university, yahoo! Proud to be part of the Forensic team (kind of) at Abertay Dundee.

Some of you may know, I’m half way through my 3rd year studying Forensic Psychobiology. A few weeks ago, I had to decide what my 4th year project was going to be based on, a project that involves me designing and running my own experiment in order to produce the results in a 10,000 word report. So it was a pretty big decision.
After a few weeks of no sleep and tonnes of stress, I finally decided what I’m doing my project on…psychopathic traits and lie detection. Guys…I’m excited!
Cannot believe I am at this stage already. Genuinely feels like a few months ago that I moved from Glasgow to Dundee, worrying that I’ll do shite at university because it had been years since I’d done any form of studying. But, here I am, two and a half years later, with two years passed with distinction and another year looking just as promising. In a few months time, I’ll FINALLY have a degree (I know I’m only 25 [soon to be] but I feel old in comparison to my class as I’m in the top 3 of the oldest classmates, wah). I’ll only have an honors year to go before I move home and (maybe/hopefully) start a masters in Forensic Psychology. People say time flies when you’re having fun but it turns out it flies in regardless.
Today at Uni.
