This may be an older article, but, I haven't seen this award of a grant to DNAP as related to the tobacco industry:

Thanks Ming...Do we have any more info on the detail of the STRmap product? I haven't seen anything other than the recent PR that states:

"STR Map uses the industry's gold standard in Human Identity testing, the same test used by forensic and paternity labs around the world. The test is based on a genetic variation known as short tandem repeat or "STR." These genetic markers form a unique identifying code for each individual, statistically powerful enough for human identification."

I'm curious how/if it is different from the standard STR Codis test, tho it sounds like it is just DNAP renaming it to STRmap as it is bundled with DNA Witness and for AncestrybyDNA for paternity, etc...?

BTW, There are nice hints in the PR of more good things to come - I smell ozone in the air, like things are getting electric right before the storm...

God Bless,
