Can DNA ‘Witness’ Race?: Forensic Uses… : DASH Story 2012-12-13
I am a medical student and open access to papers is immeasurably useful in my studies. However, I am looking at this paper to help research a thriller that I am writing (alongside my studies). This will help me get facts correct in the book (much of the internet material being rubbish, obviously). Something which I think is as important in fiction as it is in 'real life'.

Can DNA ‘Witness’ Race?: Forensic Uses… : DASH Story 2013-12-27
A friend of a friend needs to know the racial make-up of a child she is adopting for various legal, familial, and financial reasons. Because of my interest in DNA in general, i was tapped to see what's available. I expect this article to give me information that will help evaluate the usefulness of the many tests which are now on the market. (DNAWitness and its successor, DNAPrint Genomics are kaput.)
