Cybergenetics Cybergenetics TrueAllele® technology interprets DNA data from crime scene evidence. Cybergenetics was founded in 1994.

The initial focus was genetics, using computers to automate the interpretation of DNA data for medical diagnosis and gene discovery. Five years later, the company transitioned into forensic analysis, helping to eliminate backlogs and solving the DNA mixture problem. The company’s TrueAllele® technology helped identify victim remains in the World Trade Center disaster. Ten years of continual refinement led to routine use in most of the United States and abroad. Dozens of empirical studies form the basis of TrueAllele’s acceptance as reliable science. In a 2009 conviction, TrueAllele identified a murderer through his victim’s fingernails. In a 2016 exoneration, TrueAllele helped free an innocent man after twenty four years in prison. In hundreds of criminal cases, attorneys and investigators use Cybergenetics "probabilistic" genotyping to find truth in DNA.

FY2026 federal funding is now open for qualifying historical civil-rights homicide investigations.

The Bureau of Justice Assistance's Emmett Till Unsolved Civil Rights Crimes Act Program supports state, local, and tribal law enforcement and local prosecutors investigating qualifying homicides that occurred no later than December 31, 1979.

The program specifically identifies modern forensic approaches including degraded DNA analysis and modern forensic re-examination that may help generate new investigative leads.

When mixed, low-level, degraded, or previously inconclusive DNA is limiting progress in a qualifying historical investigation, Cybergenetics can evaluate existing electronic DNA data and discuss whether TrueAllele® probabilistic genotyping or our forensic services may provide additional investigative information.

Have a qualifying historical case with difficult DNA evidence? Contact Cybergenetics to discuss your existing DNA data and investigative goals.

When laboratory DNA results are complex or inconclusive, investigators may have another avenue to explore.

Cybergenetics is at the 2026 Illinois Homicide Investigators Association (ILHIA) conference in Itasca, connecting with homicide investigators and discussing how TrueAllele® technology can help interpret challenging DNA mixtures using existing laboratory data.

Attending ILHIA? Stop by our booth to learn about TrueAllele casework and our free initial case screenings.

FY2026 funding is now open for the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA) Prosecuting Cold Cases Using DNA Program.

For prosecutors, investigators, cold-case units, and forensic partners working qualifying violent cold cases, a suspect DNA profile must already have been generated and a prosecuting entity must be fully engaged.

When complex, low-level, degraded, or previously inconclusive DNA is limiting progress, Cybergenetics can evaluate existing electronic DNA data and assess whether advanced DNA interpretation may provide additional information.

FY2026 Paul Coverdell Forensic Science Improvement funding is now open.

For state and local government agencies, Coverdell supports forensic science and medical examiner/coroner improvement, including qualifying implementation of new technologies and processes in public laboratories.

If your organization is evaluating stronger DNA mixture interpretation, probabilistic-genotyping capability, or another laboratory-improvement objective, Cybergenetics can discuss the technical need and where TrueAllele® technology and implementation support may fit within the broader project.

FY2026 DNA Capacity Enhancement for Backlog Reduction (CEBR) funding is now open.

For eligible public crime laboratories working to increase DNA capacity, reduce backlogs, or strengthen processing of forensic DNA samples for CODIS, CEBR is an opportunity to review.

If your laboratory is evaluating how to improve complex DNA interpretation, expand capacity, or implement a probabilistic-genotyping workflow, Cybergenetics can discuss the technical objective and where TrueAllele® technology and implementation support may fit within the broader plan.

New FY2026 federal funding opportunities are open for forensic DNA, forensic science improvement, and qualifying DNA cold-case work.

For laboratories and agencies working to improve DNA interpretation, strengthen forensic capability, or move difficult cold cases forward, the relevant funding path depends on the underlying forensic need and the requirements of each federal program.

Cybergenetics helps laboratories and agencies address these needs through TrueAllele® probabilistic genotyping, advanced DNA interpretation, implementation support, and forensic services. Depending on the program and proposed project, current funding opportunities may help support qualifying parts of that work.

Cybergenetics is at the ROCIC 35th Annual Homicide Conference in Lexington, Kentucky this week.

We’re looking forward to connecting with homicide investigators and other law-enforcement professionals about challenging DNA evidence, cold cases, and where advanced DNA interpretation can provide additional information from existing DNA data.

If you’re attending ROCIC, stop by the Cybergenetics booth and say hello.

This National Forensic Science Week, we recognize the forensic scientists whose work helps uncover the facts behind every case.

From the laboratory to the courtroom, forensic professionals use science to examine evidence, provide objective findings, and help investigators and legal teams better understand what the evidence shows.

At Cybergenetics, we’re proud to contribute to this work through TrueAllele® technology, helping forensic professionals interpret complex DNA evidence and bring more information to challenging cases.

Thank you to the forensic scientists, analysts, investigators, and other professionals who dedicate their work to advancing forensic science.

With the SEHIA Conference occurring in Tucson, Arizona, we’re highlighting a TrueAllele® case from the state.

In State of Arizona v. Amahri Hudson, 28-year-old Hashim Ellis was fatally shot and stabbed at a Phoenix apartment complex. Investigators recovered a broken knife handle, but the complex DNA mixture was not suitable for comparison.

Using the same DNA data, TrueAllele separated five contributors and connected the evidence to Amahri Hudson with a match statistic of 936 quadrillion.

A Cybergenetics analyst later testified about the DNA results before a Maricopa County jury.

We’re set up and ready for the Southeastern Homicide Investigators Association (SEHIA) 2026 Conference in Tucson, Arizona!

From September 20–23, the Cybergenetics team will be connecting with homicide investigators and law enforcement professionals to discuss how TrueAllele® helps interpret “uninterpretable” DNA evidence in criminal investigations.

If you’re attending SEHIA, come say hello. We look forward to connecting with you!
