The Carla Walker Act
The Carla Walker Act represents a bipartisan effort to deploy FGG to all, enhance transparency, and create a robust foundation for solving unsolved cases, exonerating the innocent, and delivering justice to families.
Building a Stronger Foundation for Forensic Genetic Genealogy
We need to strengthen four pillars of FGG—ultra-sensitive DNA profiles, enhanced search capabilities, automated database tools, and public participation—to realize the full potential and truly democratize this technology.
Congressional Forensic Science Caucus: The Future of DNA Technology
To fully realize the promise of forensic genetic genealogy, it is essential to enable FGG for all, so it can be used equitably to identify suspects, name the unidentified, and exonerate the wrongfully accused.
A molecular framework for enhancing quality control and sample integrity in forensic genome sequencing
We have developed a first-of-its-kind molecular forensic information system that can encode detailed sample information, improving workflow history, tracking, contamination detection, & authenticity verification.
Understanding mtDNA and Y-DNA Testing in Forensic Genetic Genealogy
While autosomal SNP markers are central to forensic genetic genealogy, mtDNA and Y-DNA markers offer valuable lineage-specific insights, at no additional cost, that enhance and accelerate forensic investigations.
