"Trial in the case ended successfully with verdicts of "not guilty" on all counts. Your assistance, in terms of understanding the lab reports and work that the State did (and did not do) was extraordinarily helpful in terms of enabling me to ask intelligent questions of the State's three crime lab witnesses. Then, your ability to take the stand and address the significance (or lack thereof) of the crime lab evidence in the case, really helped to explain to the jury why the evidence did not support the State's theory. Thank you for your expertise and your willingness to accommodate the strange world of trial work. I'm happy to vouch for your credentials and look forward to calling upon you again should I have need for an expert in the field of DNA transfer."

"The Journal Club hosted by the DNA Mavens is an invaluable resource for enthusiasts of forensic biology/DNA analysis. Their selection of relevant publications help me stay current, even when unable to attend the respective discussion. I frequently pass on these articles to my technical leader, who has recognized their value by incorporating them into our laboratory's recommended readings. The live sessions are not only captivating and well-structured but also exemplify the optimal approach for critically examining peer-reviewed literature – at times including the study author(s) to participate in the discussions. I am grateful for their efforts to improving scientific understanding and can’t believe it’s a service they provide for free!"
