Research
Nancy is currently working within the Bridge Group at the National Center for Forensic Science under the mentorship of Dr. Candice Bridge. The current group project is the classification of lubricants collected from sexual assaults and the establishment of the Lubricant Database that will aid in the comparison and identification of trace evidence in these cases. Nancy has been working on analysis of known samples to add to the database and will help develop and conduct laboratory degradation techniques to replicate environmental changes found in samples from the field.
