The objective of the training is to provide lab training in the methods associated with the DNA barcoding pipeline. As a matter of fact, identification of trace evidence that can assist wildlife crime case by proving an offense has taken place, identifying an offender, linking an offender to both crime scene and items removed from a crime scene with that scene all form a critical part in compiling a case.
