Still in awe. An incredible event last week highlighting how genomics can be used in the courtroom. Thank you to Louise and Rosie @crick.ac.uk and @carovinuesa.bsky.social for organising such a fab event. Very inspiring and an absolute privilege to speak with Ms. Folbigg briefly.

“Science uncovered the truth of why my children died, and set me free.”

Kathleen Folbigg spoke at the Crick this week, joined by the team of scientists and lawyers who used advances in genomic science to help exonerate her after serving twenty years in jail, falsely accused of killing her children.

Two women, Kathleen Folbigg and Tracy Chapman, sit in chairs on a well-lit stage holding microphones.
