The Department of Forensic Genetics deals with the DNA analysis of biological materials in order to provide evidence in legal disputes.

For this purpose, a large number of particularly variable, non-coding areas of the DNA are examined. Clients for forensic genetic investigations are law enforcement agencies, criminal courts, civil courts and – in the area of parentage investigations – also private individuals. Clinics and medical institutes can also be clients, for example to identify cell lines or to clarify possible cases of confusion, for example in pathology.
