The Infrastructure – How it Works
“I wanted to say thank you for putting together a terrific issue! It is so refreshing to hear someone talk about the issues the way Crime Lab Report does, please continue to do so. As an administrator and a former bench working scientist, it feels good to see the things we feel, but sometimes are not able to put to paper, actually written and sent around the world. Thanks again! Keep up the great work!”
