I spent the five happiest years of my life in a morgue. As a forensic scientist in the Cleveland coroner’s office I analyzed gunshot residue on hands and clothing, hairs, fibers, paint, glass, DNA, blood and many other forms of trace evidence, as well as crime scenes. Now I'm a certified latent print examiner and CSI for a police department in Florida. I also write a series of forensic suspense novels, turning the day job into fiction. My books have been translated into six languages.
I'm sorry but I don't know. A DNA testing company can probably help you. Best of luck!
Go to a college that offers a degree in forensic science. Each college or university should have a website where they list the degrees they provide.
Unfortunately I can't really discuss that on a public forum. And they're all weird, in their way.
I got a little queasy at my very first autopsy, but since then, no.

What's something you think Apple does surprisingly POORLY?
I like doing both, because being in the lab all the time can get tedious, but being at crime scenes all the time can get exhausting.
The only areas of the body with friction ridges are the palms and fingers of the hand and the soles of the feet. They could not possibly be found on gloves. I don't know if there's a paper that states that...it's kind of like finding research to say that an apple is not an Orange. However if you search 'identifying glove prints ' you could probably find what you need. Best of luck.
I'm sorry but I wouldn't have any idea. You'd have to ask an anthropologist.
