We love to share the excitement of our faculty. Pictured in this photo is Charles Farber and Dr. Dmitry Kurouski and the excitement can only be heard directly by the words of Dr. Dmitry Kurouski who reports as follows: "I'm glad to share this exciting news with you: my group just showed that using a portable Raman spectrometer we can detect and identify urine on police uniform and other types of fabric directly at a crime scene.

I'm very proud that this paper came out during the National Police Week. Specifically, because there are numerous cases of correctional officers being subjected to urine
from prisoners. This is a crime and I'm glad that our technological solution may help preventing such crimes in the future."
