More than 600 forensic experts from around the world will gather in Las Vegas in October to attend a symposium put on by Madison-based Promega Corp.
The company's 20th International Symposium on Human Identification will highlight advances in DNA technology and explore controversial issues related to the expanded use of DNA typing. An "interesting cases" session that features cases that benefitted from DNA analysis, including a cold case solved after 30 years with evidence from the victim's fingernails and a case where a sniffer dog led police to the wrong suspect.
