Co-founders Ripan S. Malhi and Jason Eshleman have over a decade of DNA identification experience and are considered leaders in the industry. They are two of only a handful of researchers world-wide considered to be experts in ancient DNA analysis, and have worked with ancient human and non-human DNA from several hundred to several thousand years old. They were chosen to be part of the ground-breaking Kennewick Man research team for the Department of the Interior and have worked on numerous other projects analyzing both single specimens and ancient populations. Both Dr. Malhi and Dr. Eshleman completed their doctoral research at UC Davis, where they worked extensively with the gene genealogies of Native American Peoples. Drs. Malhi and Eshleman have also benefited from the university’s 20 years of experience in primate paternity and colony management serving the NIH and other primate research facilities.

In July 2005, Trace Genetics was acquired by DNAPrint™ genomics Inc..
