take the d.n.a. sample and try to figure out the ethnic background of the person who contributed it. we can as i mentioned earlier predict certain physical features. there is a specific gene called mc 1 r where i can look at three variants and i can find, i can detect about 90% of people who have red hair. this is times referred to as the red hair gene. we can predict eye color accurately in 90% of cases. we can even with a blood example estimate age. it is approximate but can give us some idea of the age of the contributor of the blood example. and people are working on rapid detection and d.n.a. typing at the crime scene. a lot of interesting developments. developments that involve both science as well as i think the legal profession helping to decide which of these developments are appropriate. how can we best use them. caller: one the things i enjoy about talking to groups of judges is you have this group has the collective wisdom to figure out how to use this information to its best possible purp

in the spanish specimen, 400,000 years ago, so far, we only have a little part of the d.n.a., but the technology has evolved to the point where we're going to have more of that very soon. >> we're going to be seeing more and more old d.n.a. because of the new methods? >> yeah, basically as you die and your body degrades, so does your d.n.a., broken down into tiny bits over time. today's sequencing technology which was not developed for us, for medicine and for understanding jeanettes is basically built on the idea of sequencing little tiny bits of the genome. we are able to use those techniques and added vans them to a certain degree, doing a tremendous job developing new library prep techniques to make the d.n.a. from ancient bones work in today's sequencing machines. >> do you think we'll find more species that haven't been discovered yet? >> we've sequenced three different groups of ancient people and thought they would look pretty much alike and we have two of them that we didn't anticipate finding before, so i expect that as we're able to sequence things from more places, we're g

of the fish and putting it into the d.n.a. of a tomato yuk don't get me wrong i like fish tomatoes but this is just creepy. the seeds the seeds of them find in then ground the food they produce improve and cause cancer or other problems and that in people of many food producers places the mind to mind most folks don't even know they exist. burke is now fourteen but he hasn't stopped his crusade against him out and the fight against big agriculture he joined me earlier to talk more in depth about the dangers that g.m. could pose i started by asking him what trauma tackled the issue at such a young age. i really fell over the years as i learned more and more about this subject that i was especially as a little kid that i've been deceived in tricked by all these come to me as in these cartoon characters that i grew up with like you know tony the tiger on t.v. and sam and i just i felt like to myself that i need to let the american public my friends and family a lot of the people i meet know about what i was learning in that it was

the tests that were done, say in the 1970's or 1980's, were not genetic tests. no one was look at d.n.a. they were looking at other levels, so they were what would propering called a metabolic screening. >> although with proper respect, i think that's a quibble, in the sense of they weren't testing d.n.a., but we aren't testing it now. we're testing the proteins for most of the neonatal testing. it's still tests of proteins really, but it's a test that tells you something about the underlying d.n.a. > so a word, two things. the f.b.i. did not get ahold of any samples from texas, but the department of defense did for exactly what hank said, namely to look at the frequency of d.n.a., and because that was said to be forensic, the investigative reporter thought that it was going into a database. i emailed her and could not persuade her otherwise despite the fact it was very clear. >> i will accept the friendly amendment. >> but i want to raise an even broader issue of something we were talking about with the king case. i always come back to the same things. and namely, what's the difference

able to look at all the d.n.a. differences that they have versus individuals who have that disease and develop what are called between tick regions of the genome and getting -- having a risk forgetting that disease and some incredible new insaoeubgts come outing about hat for many autoimmune diseases. we don't understand it all completely yet. compare this to where we were ten years ago and our knowledge where to look in your a for differences that might diseases like for lupus and arthritis it's spectacular and i think we can and the end n now this have decade remarkable advances in diseases like that continuing. whether it's medical research or criminal investigations play as huge part in all of that. d.n.a.?we find out >> d.n.a. research goes back really last century incremental insight about what the hereditary material was. the break through is recognizing hereditary was the material and one of the most famous discoveries was 60 years ago. we're celebrating it this year because in 1953 jim watson and rancis cri

the things about being human is you want to please people who are--who have been wronged. >> the decades of d.n.a. evidence and these cases where people are finally found to be innocent after years of incarceration, after many people have been on the death penalty and then exonerated at a later point, has this at all changed the public perception about how justice is meted out particularly when we're talking about the ultimate penalty? >> you know, i think it's a good question. i don't know how much the death penalty conversation has changed as a result of wrongful convictions. i think that it's a lot easier of a conversation to have. you know, you hope that in a death penalty case that people actually, you know, are being extra careful in that prosecution, and what most of the research and studies have shown is that, you know, it's just like any other prosecution, you could have a wrongful conviction. there's nothing special about the death penalty that would cause people to get it right. >> talk to me a little bit about how decisions are made, the thinking, the process that goes through. at som

the law requires d.n.a. samples be taken from anyone arrested for a felony in california. voters passed the law in 2004 and the american civil liberties union sued saying it is unconstitutional law. the state claims it solves cold cases and supreme court upheld a similar law in maryland. >> oral arguments before the 9th circuit court of appeals in san francisco can be seen online live starting today. it is believed the first time a federal appellate court will broadcast live video of a proceeding. only cases deemed of "great importance," will be streamed live. >> new information on the deadly crash of an asiana flight 214 at sfo back in july. ahead of government public hearings tomorrow, sources say the national transportation safety board investigators will highlight overreliance on computers and the need adjust pilot training. they will reveal the pilots misunderstood exactly how the boeing 777 automatic feed control features functioned. three teen girls died in the crash. the ntsb hearings begin tomorrow and will last two days. >> former san diego mayor faces sentencing

bomber activated the bomb it was a male parts of his body were taken from the scene of the blast and sent for d.n.a. testing to determine who he was also we can say that the explosion had the force of no less than four kilograms of t.n.t. just as the device at the train station it contained damage agents and since there were the same damage agents discovered in both cases both attacks worked. they possibly could have even been made in the same place. so as you heard the explosive devices were identical actually the first one had. a larger. less claiming he lives and thirty two inch hole from both explosions so far. and margaret margaret still reeling from sunday's suicide blast at the main railway station there what are investigators saying about. the originally now if you recall they had suspected a female suicide bomber they were able to retrieve her from. and able to identify that individual as a male suicide bomber now health officials there are those who are still in the hospital here in the crowd as well as in moscow and so far have died from these cheap blast the investigation is still ongoi
