At ISHI 35, Julie Sikorsky, Forensic Biology Manager at the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, shared her insights on:
🔬 Fixing the forensic pipeline—how to recruit, train, and retain skilled forensic scientists
🧬 The evolution of cold case investigations, including forensic genetic genealogy (FIGG)
🚀 The future of forensic DNA—from Promega’s latest innovation eliminating stutter to the growing role of AI in forensic analysis
With nearly a decade of ISHI experience, Julie explains why this conference is where forensic professionals come together to collaborate, exchange ideas, and re-energize their passion for the field.
