forensic genetic analysis, when reportable genetic mutations were relayed back to blood relatives.

In concordance with recommendations of the DNA Commission of the International Society of
Forensic Genetics, the results should be treated as a genotype (e.g., DYS385 11-14).

Dr Graham Williams, Senior Lecturer in
Forensic Genetics at University of Huddersfield, said: "I am delighted for Miranda, this is an extraordinary opportunity for her.
In April 2007, the laboratory of
forensic genetics at CING was assigned the responsibility of identifying the skeletal remains exhumed under the auspices of the CMP by using DNA typing methodologies.
Their topics include the continuing evolution of forensic DNA databases, the influence of humic acid on DNA analysis, advances in DNA typing in sexual assault casework, the study of ancient DNA in
forensic genetics, forensic mitochondrial DNA analysis, MtDAN analysis for genetically identifying forensically important insects, local DNA databases in forensic casework, and in vitro studies of DNA recovered from incinerated teeth.
Professor Niels Morling, president of the International Society for
Forensic Genetics, who coordinated the letter, said the appeal to save the FSS had drawn support from scientists around the world.
