How can we discuss forensic DNA without talking about evidence and the courtroom?

Join us on 20 May 2026 for the presentation:
“DNA in the Courtroom: Judges as Gatekeepers and Factfinders”
From admissibility of evidence to the interpretation of DNA results, the courtroom remains one of the most critical spaces where science meets justice. As DNA evidence becomes increasingly powerful in criminal investigations, the role of judges in evaluating scientific evidence has never been more important.

Make way — DNA is in the room!
Be part of the conversation during the DNA Analysis Laboratory’s 30th Anniversary Celebration Webinar:
“Science in the Service of Society: 30 Years of Forensic and Population Genetics in Action”
