Well… one thing that can be a possibility in the physical anthropology (or also called forensic Anthropology) is to participate in the legal medical service (SML) and Police Investigations (PDI) in the registration of DNA sequence, fingerprints, collections of the crime evidences and genomic analysis of the imputed. For these reasons, I believe that the new DNA system collection is the most important in the last years for the develop of my career and our country. In the future, my modest dream, will be to work in the genetic labs of the PDI and SML from Chile for use the new DNA system collection.
This system is a police and scientific instrument, which is part a government policy to protect victims of crime in a coordinated effort by the SML and the Ministry of Justice, Prisons, prosecutors, police and Police Investigations.
The system is a progressive collection of five different records: register of convicted, defendants registration, recording of evidence, registration of missing persons and their families, and victims registration. The collection is made on the basis of genetic fingerprints during a criminal investigation and with an absolute scientific certainty will allow the identification of a potential suspect by comparing his genetic pattern and the DNA profile of biological samples (evidence) collection at the scene. Finally, the technology used is based on the program or software called COMBINED DNA INDEX SYSTEM (CODIS), developed by the FBI in the United States and provided to our country after an agreement of cooperation signed by the Ministry of Justice and the FBI in 2003. One important feature is that CODIS is the most advanced in Latin America.

wow! it was a great, an awesome news!!! Especially, in my opinion, for the direct support of the FBI, giving the software necessary to save information!!!
ResponderEliminarAnd the best of Latinoamerica!!! simply awesome!!!
Hmmm... conspiracy theories came to my mind xD! I think this can help in some cases of identification, but for me it's a bit weird that the government can have your genetic info stored in a big database @_@
ResponderEliminarwell! I think that any discovery to improve the ways to find the real criminal is excellent news!
ResponderEliminarI hope that you can use this new technology one day :)
see us!
