DNAprint Genomics (DNAG)

Dr jeffreys is a voice to be reckoned with. Let's hope his resistence to the benefit of DNAP's work is shortlived, and perhaps even there is some mutual benefit to be had with Diabetes research. At the bottom of the link page there is a box that takes you to "diabetes minisatellite"

Perhaps are more astute science voices can comment on this area, as there is much discuddion of variance in the "boilerplate" between focal points. We had discussed this to a degree before when we heard about the "noise" DNA chunks between cites of study, where it was felt a "fulcrum" or point of importance was present.

As far as the Professor, he is looking for scientific certainty beyond the ability of the forensic users to discriminate. (My opinion). I feel his statement in the article published and linked in your message was looking for a very high degree of resolution, while the forensic need requires a lesser resolution to allow for variation in peoples perception. Understanding how to use a Hi-Res DNA Wittness will come in time and with education of the users.

The diabetes study he is performing seems to be covering some of the same ground as in Ancestry. He has sampled globaly and his results as well as DNAP's will benefit this field of study.
