This episode of 'Dr. DNA Dan' hosted by Professor Dan Handley from Southern California University of Health Sciences delves into genetics, specifically focusing on short tandem repeats (STRs). The podcast explains the significance of STRs in forensic DNA testing and paternity tests by measuring the number of repeated sequences in different individuals' genomes. STRs, found across all human chromosomes, are used to match DNA samples in criminal investigations through the CODIS database ...

Over the 1960s through 1980s, more was learned about the structure of chromosomes and the functions of some genes. However, we did not have a comprehensive map of the entire human genome. Learn how molecular biology techniques become more sophisticated, and scientists could start determining the nucleotide sequence of small portions of chromosomes. ------------------------------------------ Join DNA Dan each month as he dives deep into the world of genetics, genomics, DNA, and the future of p...
