Jo-Anne Bright is a science leader at the Institute of Environmental Science and Research Limited in Auckland, New Zealand. She has 16 years of experience in casework and quality management within the forensic biology laboratory. She earned her PhD in forensic science from the University of Auckland, New Zealand. She has over 50 publications on forensic DNA analysis and interpretation. She is also a co-developer of the DNA profile interpretation software STRmix and has undertaken many presentations and workshops on DNA profile interpretation in Australasia, the United States and Europe. Duncan Taylor is the principal scientist of forensic statistics at Forensic Science SA, Adelaide, Australia. He earned his PhD in molecular biology and a diploma in biostatistics, and has worked in the forensic field for over a decade. He has produced numerous DNA reports and presented evidence in magisterial and district courts in Australian states, as well as in the Supreme Court of Australia. He is a member of the Australasian Statistics Scientific Working Group and the Scientific Working Group on DNA Analysis Methods for Y-STRs and has published a number of works in both areas. He is also one of the developers of STRmix, a DNA interpretation software being used in forensic labs in Australia and New Zealand.
