In 2022, the National Technology Validation and Implementation Collaborative (NTVIC) was established. Its mission is to collaborate across the US on validation, method development, and implementation. The NTVIC is comprised of 13 federal, state and local government crime laboratory leaders, joined by university researchers, and private technology and research companies. One of the NTVIC's first initiatives was to generate this draft policy document. This document provides guidelines and considerations for crime laboratories and investigative agencies exploring the establishment of a forensic investigative genetic genealogy (FIGG) program. While each jurisdiction is responsible for its own program policy, sharing minimum standards and best practices to optimize resources, promote technology implementation and elevate quality is a goal of the NTVIC.
2022年,国家技术验证与实施协作组织(NTVIC)成立。其使命是在美国各地就验证、方法开发和实施开展合作。NTVIC由13名联邦、州和地方政府犯罪实验室负责人组成,还有大学研究人员以及私营技术和研究公司加入。NTVIC的首批举措之一就是制定这份政策文件草案。本文档为探索建立法医调查遗传谱系(FIGG)计划的犯罪实验室和调查机构提供了指导方针和注意事项。虽然每个司法管辖区都负责自己的计划政策,但分享最低标准和最佳实践以优化资源、促进技术实施并提高质量是NTVIC的目标。
