Abstract
Dense single nucleotide polymorphism testing has revolutionized forensic science, helping solve decadesold, current and future cases by overcoming the limitations of traditional short tandem repeat profiling. By embracing innovations from fields such as ancient DNA analysis, forensics can deliver long-awaited answers and justice to victims and their families.
