In his May 2026 Forensic Magazine article, Cybergenetics chief scientist Dr. Mark Perlin explains “How Courts Decide When Computer DNA Evidence is Reliable.” Using the US v. Anderson appellate ruling, he explores scientific admissibility in this illustrative TrueAllele case.

The magazine article engagingly illuminates all five Daubert prongs. For each reliability prong, Dr. Perlin asks the court’s key question, describes how the defense challenged TrueAllele, why their argument was unpersuasive, and gives the court’s answer.
