Abstract
Asked to comment on a collective discussion paper by Jennifer L. Mnookin et al.,
this Commentary identifies difficulties the authors encountered in defining or agreeing
on the subject matter "forensic science" and its perceived deficiencies. They conclude
that there is a need for a research culture, whereas this Commentary calls for the
development of a forensic science culture through the development of forensic
science education fed by research dedicated to forensic science issues. It is a call for a
change of emphasis and, perhaps, of paradigm.
