These scientists were part of the group that was instrumental in the development and validation of the Single Nucleotide Polymorphism (SNP) capture. SNP capture builds upon the mitochondrial genome (mtG) Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) and hybridization capture methods validated in 2016. In 2015, knowing that traditional nuclear short tandem repeat methods would not work on samples requiring mtG NGS methods, the Armed Forces DNA Identification Laboratory worked with the Department of Defense Small Business Innovation Research program and Defense Rapid Innovation group, and submitted a public proposal.
