Term of the Month — Short Tandem Repeats [ [link removed] ]

Short tandem repeats are repeated DNA sequences that can be used by forensic investigators to identify people and remains. By looking at the number of repeat segments across areas of the DNA strand, investigators can determine whether a DNA profile is unique and distinguish among individuals, helping solve missing persons cases and identifying people convicted of or arrested for crimes. Short tandem repeats can also be used to resolve more than one case by connecting separate cases or connecting a case to an individual.
