Physician Insight & Safety Protocols

“As a Consultant in Medical Genetics, I recognize the profound implications of DNA analysis for identity and lineage determination. STR profiling yields robust data, yet results must always be interpreted alongside a thorough clinical and family history. Never base critical legal or medical decisions solely on a genetic report.”
