		Letter to the Editor Response to: Use of prior odds for missing persons identifications - authors' reply Bruce Budowle, Jianye Ge, Ranajit Chakraborty, Harrell Gill-King Investigative Genetics 2012, 3:3 (1 February 2012) Abstract \| Provisional PDF
		Letter to the Editor Reply to Budowle, Ge, Chakraborty and Gill-King: Use of prior odds for missing persons identifications Alex Biedermann, Franco Taroni, Pierre Margot Investigative Genetics 2012, 3:2 (31 January 2012) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed
		Research Developing criteria and data to determine best options for expanding the core CODIS loci Jianye Ge, Arthur Eisenberg, Bruce Budowle Investigative Genetics 2012, 3:1 (6 January 2012) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary The rapid expansion of DNA databases over the past few years has lead to numerous problems associated with their use. In order to increase the efficiency of the Combined DNA Index System, expansions to the core loci have been suggested. Budowle et al evaluate these proposed expansions and consider the consequences of the selection of core genetic markers for forensic DNA databases.
		Comment Appy Christmas Mark A Jobling Investigative Genetics 2011, 2:25 (1 December 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary With Christmas just around the corner, a seasonal theme is expected of this month's column. In an appropriately festive way, Mark discusses the related topic of the virgin birth- or parthenogenesis.
		Research Contrasting signals of positive selection in genes involved in human skin color variation from tests based on SNP scans and resequencing Johanna Maria de Gruijter, Oscar Lao, Mark Vermeulen, Yali Xue, Cara Woodwark, Christopher J Gillson, Alison J Coffey, Qasim Ayub, S QASIM Mehdi, Manfred Kayser, Chris Tyler-Smith Investigative Genetics 2011, 2:24 (1 December 2011) Abstract \| Provisional PDF \| PubMed
		Review Next-generation sequencing technologies and applications for human genetic history and forensics Eva C Berglund, Anna Kiialainen, Ann-Christine Syvänen Investigative Genetics 2011, 2:23 (24 November 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed
		Review Policy implications for familial searching Joyce Kim, Danny Mammo, Marni B Siegel, Sara H Katsanis Investigative Genetics 2011, 2:22 (1 November 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Advances in technology make familial searching a valuable tool, enabling new leads to be developed in criminal investigations and revitalizing cold cases. The difficulties faced in policy making stem from the need to balance crime fighting against potential impacts on society, taking into account logistical, social, ethical, legal and economic implications.
		Comment Father figures Mark A Jobling Investigative Genetics 2011, 2:21 (6 October 2011) Abstract \| Full text \| PDF \| PubMed \| Editor’s summary Mark discusses the use of Y-chromosome testing to establish relatedness, with the case study of Thomas Jefferson and his alleged illegitimate children.
