Abstract

Probabilistic genotyping (PG) gives match statistic answers to DNA mixture questions. PG overcomes the limitations of manual mixture interpretation. A TrueAllele® expert educates jurors about PG methods and results. Using case examples, this talk shows how to clearly explain PG match information in court. Better science communication helps jurors render more informed verdicts.
