DNA Webinar Series: Probabilistic Genotyping of Evidentiary DNA Typing Results

May 1, 2019 //  by Sarah Olson//  Leave a Comment

The FBI Laboratory and the National Institute of Justice’s Forensic Technology Center of Excellence are offering a series of free online workshops to increase knowledge, understanding, and the reliable application of probabilistic genotyping to DNA evidence.

As crime labs begin adopting methods that incorporate probabilistic genotyping results, attorneys need to understand the methods, capabilities, and limitations of PG software programs. The first webinar will be offered today, May 1, 2019 at 12:00 pm.

The series targets DNA forensic scientists and legal professionals. The 8-part program begins with fundamental information and increase in complexity to address a variety of topics relevant to the development and use of probabilistic genotyping in criminal investigations, from the laboratory to the courtroom.
