On 12 and 13 August 2011, Dan Krane and Keith Inman will be presenting a full-day DNA workshop in St. Croix and St. Thomas (U.S. Virgin Islands). The workshop is an opportunity for attorneys of all experience levels to learn about the implications pertaining to forensic DNA profiling results. The seminar will cover subjects germane to forensic DNA including: evidence collection, quality assurance, validation of laboratory procedures, serology, transfer, identification, technical artifacts and error, DNA database searches, juror comprehension, expert witness selection, and due diligence. The workshop will also include a hands-on component to familiarize the participants with the processes involved with forensic DNA profiling. Course materials consisting of speaker presentations and supporting references such as key literature, legal documents and web sites will be provided to each participant in electronic format at the beginning of the seminar. There are no admission restrictions.
