Proteos
The Proteos Program seeks to develop novel approaches to human identification and correlation with objects, events, and locations based on the observation of polymorphisms in amino acid sequences in proteins. The Proteos Program will also seek development of novel methodologies for the extraction of both protein and DNA in parallel from touch samples of forensic interest.
