[Forensic phenotyping: How far along?]

Medecine sciences : M/S - 1 Jan 2000

Jordan Bertrand

Abstract excerpt

The prediction of a person's aspect from analysis of an anonymous DNA sample has made significant progress in the last decade. Pigmentation (eyes, hair and, more recently, skin colour) can now be determined with good accuracy; face shape is still not amenable to prediction (except, in general lines, from ancestry). Age can apparently also be determined from methylation profiles. Police forces are, understandably,...
