"ISHI has always been my favorite forensic DNA conference. The content provides me a fresh perspective on what is challenging and working in other forensic laboratories. If we work in a vacuum without getting out to external conferences that often leads to issues. I also like all the familiar faces- ISHI is where I can have personal face-to-face conversations with others in the industry too."Amy Jeanguenat // Mindgen, LLC
