The Indiana State Police proposes to implement a DNA backlog reduction plan using FY24 Competitive CEBR Program funding. The purpose is to reduce the DNA backlog by increasing capacity and case throughput across the State of Indiana. Project activities include funding for new DNA quantification instruments that will increase efficiency and capacity for DNA casework.

 

The expected outcomes include a reduced backlog and improved turnaround time of forensic biology cases and increased analytical capabilities of the ISP casework laboratories. The citizens of Indiana are the intended beneficiaries of the project.
