Forensic Science and Molecular Anthropology

The mission of the International Society for Applied Biological Sciences (ISABS) is to advance biological sciences and the applications of related techniques and technologies by promoting, improving, and expanding research, technological development, and educational activities in applied biological sciences and related areas as well as exchanging the cutting-edge scientific contents between the scientists. In alignment with this goal, this book, supported by ISABS, features extremely interesting five chapters on forensic genetics and molecular anthropology. Chapters address such topics as the genetic structure of the Croatian population, challenges faced in aquatic investigations, the critical role of DNA databases in enhancing the effectiveness of forensic DNA technology, the instruments and methods currently used in the forensic examination of handwriting and documents, and the Innocence Projects and the broader Innocence Movement in the United States and Europe.
