Forensic DNA analysts and other interested stakeholders are invited to participate in a free NIST webinar on validation concepts and resources on Aug. 6, 2014, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m., ET.

In recent years, instrument manufacturers and software companies have created new technologies to analyze challenging DNA samples. Examples include new quantification kits, STR multiplexes, instruments for CE separation, and an increasing number of available software programs for interpreting complex mixtures.

These new technologies must be tested and validated before they can be reliably used in a forensic laboratory. NIST, Boston University and California Department of Justice experts will cover validation concepts and NIST software tools to assist in the validation process.
