Your fingerprints reveal more than you think | Simona Francese
Ғылым және технология
Our fingerprints are what make us unique -- but they're also home to a world of information hidden in molecules that reveal our actions, lifestyles and routines. In this riveting talk, chemist Simona Francese shows how she studies these microscopic traces using mass spectrometry, a technology that analyzes fingerprints in previously impossible detail, and demonstrates how this cutting-edge forensic science can help police catch criminals. (Note: This talk contains descriptions of sexual violence.)

Very impressed! I'm not a science student, but I have studied spectrometry in my Astronomy course. As a writer, I think this is an impressive step forward in criminal profiling and crime solving . . . Excellent Ted Talk. Thanks much.

What if the victim or the perpetrator comes from an area where amounts of pharmaceuticals (including antibiotics, hormones, mood stabilizers, and other drugs) are in the drinking water supplies???
My issue with these technologies is their ultimate application. With the new array of biometric sensors and fingerprint scanners in phone and IoT is that you could walk up to a building, open the door and your data is captured without you knowing. Then relayed to brands, marketing companies to target you with advertising or messaging in situ
Pretty amazing tbh, one the better recent video TED’s released recently
Very interesting info which will help with my forensic science fingerprint analysis work. Thank you.
This is astounding work!
I'm never skipping washing my hands again 😂
THAT WOW on the end killed me xD
I really like this presentation!!! It is kind a scary story, but it is worth it. I think it is a new way to solve crimes. Crimes will decrease as they soledBy using right technology as she said. But everywhere we have two side of the coin. And of course fingerprints can be used as setup. Everyone should be carefully. And follow the recommendation,like “don’t touch anything in someone’s house”. I think it will help you to stay safe. Love yourself and your loved one!
Whoever Kate was, I can tell the speaker was close to her in some way as she teared up. Her passion seems driven in seeking justice and the result will eventually help many victims. May Kate's family and friends find peace.
Really interesting! Thanks
Fantastic work!
Does washing your hands enough remove any of this? Or is this beyond what washing hands does?

It does remove it for some time but then your body will stil sweat the drugs out but that depends the time after use. I give it like a half hour tops protection if the drugs is present in the body. During such a crime u will sweat deu to stres so in the end it wont treuly help to get away with it. This is my theory but I do know the treu power of these machines and it is realy insane how accurate they can provide the smallest results.

No two fingerprints are alike.These advancements in analyzing fingerprints are much needed in a quicker identification of suspects in an alleged crime.If you are trespassing do not leave any fingerprints behind.
Hmmm the next time you drink champagne at a public place, remember to wipe off the prints! 🤣
Is this finger print procedure in all towns and cities across the world or just the ones that know about it?
Fantastic work👍🏻

programmer here - as far as android is concerned, we use the android sdk to detect finger print. We have no direct access to the fingerprint. We cannot know how it looks. We can only authenticate a given fingerprint with what has been saved before (to which we have no access to). Though, I'm uncertain if google can access your fingerprint. They MADE this SDK, so its natural to think that they can access your fingerprint.

ki daniels Cancer in your fingerprint? Doubt it. If you mean in general, the organic noise is way too high. Remember that cancer cells are the same as your own with minor DNA changes. And we already know how to test for indicators in your blood, as long as there are enough of them. Doesn't help you locate the cancer mucj, though. You need an MRI or x-ray/CT for that, depending on the cancer.

@@kidaniels8199 I'm sorry about your labels, most of which are clearly self-affixed. But I have to admit, I have a hard time believing your first claim, that you're intelligent. That's clearly not the case. And there are lots of evidence and testing being done, but a lot of what you're describing is physiologically impossible. And when dealing with criminal cases, you have to have 'beyond a reasonable doubt', which none of what you describe could ever do, even if it were possible, unless you have scientific evidence for it. And if the technology to 'discover' these 'things' has existed for years, yet no one has ever found a shred of evidence for it despite testing, that's a problem. Like you said, absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence. But we need proof for legal proceedings. P.S. If you wish to be taken seriously in the future when talking about science, I'd learn to write and spell properly, and also drop the pseudo-scientific mumbo-jumbo and stick to the science. Otherwise people will think you're just insane. Or they're dumb enough to believe you. Either way, not a good thing.

I wonder if the pattern of fingerprints also can tell us something about the person.. maybe some patterns are more common among woman or maybe some patterns are linked to the skin color or hair / eyes etc.

Congratulation, we need this in our police investigations.....
Impressive technology if wisely used but a bit unsettling to trust the government to wisely use anything.
She did a chronological mistake in her talk: The overlapping fingerprints can only be visible as single fingerprings (by the software of the computer) BECAUSE those specific molecules found by MS identify the areas of each fingerprint! Only then the computer can compute both images of the fps. She first put the overlapping fp apart and then told us that those substances are only on the killers fp.... thats chronologically wrong!
