Greg Hampikian, biology, spoke at Harvard University Law School earlier this week on “New Developments in Forensic DNA.” His address was part of the annual National Innocence Network meeting, where Innocence Project co-founders Barry Scheck and Peter Neufeld were honored by over 50 DNA exonerees.

Hampikian, back row second from left, is pictured with three exonerated inmates (front row) who were released from prison through his DNA work while a professor at Boise State. The exonerees are Clarence Harrison (2004), left, Robert Clark (2005) and Pete Williams (2007). Collectively, they spent 57 years in prison for crimes they didn't commit. Hampikian is on the board of the Georgia Innocence Project, and Director of the Idaho Innocence Project.
