Home » Practical FIGG Casework Bioinformatics for the Forensic Practitioner
This workshop enables better understanding of whole genome FIGG SNP data processing. Educational content bridges operational criminalistics laboratories and “behind the scenes” bioinformatics. Attendees gain hands-on experience with publicly available tools. In immersive scenario-based activities attendees engage in interactive and dynamic learning. An end-to-end forensic workflow is learned in manageable steps: from raw sequence data through alignment, variant calling, and GEDmatch Pro report generation. Provided handouts can assist with subsequent in-house train-the-trainer efforts. By drawing parallels to familiar processes, subject matter is accessible to the non-bioinformatician. Participants apply advanced open-source tools to mock case data, e.g., allelic imputation, DNA mixtures.
Analysts, technical leaders, and management who perform, oversee, or evaluate FIGG programs that use whole genome SNP data. Suitable for those just beginning.
