With the advance of post-genomic technologies, the need for tools to manage large scale data in biology becomes more pressing. This involves annotating and storing data securely, as well as granting permissions flexibly with several technologies (all array types, flow cytometry, proteomics) for collaborative work and data sharing. This task is not easily achieved with most systems available today.
'''Forensic science''' (often shortened to '''forensics''') is the application of a broad spectrum of sciences — from anthropology to toxicology — to answer questions of interest to a legal system. During the course of an investigation, forensic scientists collect, preserve, and analyze scientific evidence using a variety of special [[laboratory]] equipment  and special techniques for such interests. In addition to their laboratory role, the forensic scientists may also testify as an expert witness in both criminal and civil cases and can work for either the prosecution or the defense.

Forensic science

Forensic science (often shortened to forensics) is the application of a broad spectrum of sciences — from anthropology to toxicology — to answer questions of interest to a legal system. During the course of an investigation, forensic scientists collect, preserve, and analyze scientific evidence using a variety of special laboratory equipment and special techniques for such interests. In addition to their laboratory role, the forensic scientists may also testify as an expert witness in both criminal and civil cases and can work for either the prosecution or the defense.

Much of the work of forensic science is conducted in the forensic laboratory. Such a laboratory has many similarities to a traditional clinical or research lab in so much that it contains various lab instruments and several areas set aside for different tasks. However, it differs in other ways. Windows, for example, represent a point of entry into a forensic lab, which must be secure as it contains evidence to crimes. (Full article...)
