Educational Information:

DNAI.org: DNA Interactive is an educational web site resource that celebrates the 50th anniversary of the discovery of the DNA double helix structure. There are six sections to this web site: Timeline, Code, Manipulation, Genome, Applications, Implications. Each section is split into modules and has rare video interviews with scientists, 3D animations, and narrative text to present and explain DNA science. Timeline is an interactive, animated exploration of genetics and molecular biology from Gregor Mendel and early genetics to Mario Capecchi, Francis Collins and current biotechnological techniques and events. In the Timeline section, site visitors can travel through time to chart the history of DNA science.

DNAHelp.org: DNA Help Organization is a leading independent advice agency, specializing in advice on DNA testing. As a global organization, requests for our expertise are received from around the globe. Our organization helps people from all backgrounds understand the fundamentals of DNA testing and explains the procedure in detail. DNA is often used to determine paternity. When a paternity test shows that a child's DNA does not match that of the alleged father, he is excluded 100% as the biological father of the child. When the child's DNA does match that of the alleged father, we can prove a probability of 99% or greater for paternity.

DNA Forensics Program: Forensic DNA evidence has become a critical tool in the investigation and prosecution of crime in the United States. Police can use DNA evidence at a crime scene to both identify the perpetrators and exonerate suspects initially implicated by other types of evidence. In addition, jurisdictions are expanding the types of crimes in which they seek DNA evidence. The technology involved in forensic DNA typing evolves on a continual basis. As a result, prosecutors and other law enforcement officials require continuous training in the most recent developments in forensic DNA typing technologies.
