DNA analysis is reaching new levels of speed and technique.
It is the ultimate identification method and DNA research is accelerated by public programs that require all felons to be DNA tested for a national database and commercial programs that claim to relate DNA to the probability of concocting certain diseases.
In The Brain Brokers, a super intelligent person invents a new method of DNA identification by satellite. The technique is used to link criminals with the crime at light speed. It may not be too far off from happening. Like a forecast of going to the moon in the 50's and then doing it 20 years later, my story may be just a harbinger of the future. Perhaps a good guess on my part.
Take a look.
