In this episode, I talk with Brian Medlock, Laboratory Director for the Oregon State Police Forensic Lab in Bend, Oregon. An undergraduate pre-med biochemistry major, Brian had second thoughts about becoming a doctor during his senior year. Somewhat on a whim, and leveraging his undergraduate laboratory experience, he applied for and landed a job as a Forensic Chemist with the Drug Enforcement Administration. He then joined the Oregon State Police as a Forensic Scientist. We’ll talk about what it is like to work in the fascinating field of forensic science.
