What is a forensic lab tech?

Forensic Lab Technicians, also known as forensic science technicians, are professionals who assist in the investigation of crimes by collecting, analyzing, and preserving physical evidence in laboratory settings. They use scientific methods and specialized equipment to examine materials such as blood, hair, fibers, and other trace evidence. Their findings help law enforcement agencies solve crimes and can be presented as evidence in court. Forensic lab techs often work closely with forensic scientists, crime scene investigators, and law enforcement personnel.
