Genetics Expert Witnesses

Every living thing on Earth is made up of cells. Genetics is a discipline of biology that studies genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms. Every cell in the body with a nucleus has the same complete set of genes, which contain DNA, which is inherited from our parents and determines our height, eye, and hair color.  The study of genetic information by doctors and scientists is critical to the diagnosis, treatment, prevention, and cures for many illnesses. Our genetics expert witnesses, speakers, and consultants are researchers and scholars from major universities, hospitals, and research facilities. Their knowledge spans the diverse disciplines that genetics encompasses. Areas of expertise include:

  • Genetic counseling
  • Hepatic gene therapy
  • Genetic codes
  • Human diseases
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Genomic imprinting
  • Ethics
  • Biochemical genetics
  • Molecular immunology
  • Gene mapping
  • Plant breeding
  • Animal breeding
  • Immunopharmacology
  • Forensic genetics
  • Drug discovery
  • Genetic disease genes
  • Genetics of mood and substance abuse disorders
  • Mitochondrial disease
  • Stem cell transplantation
  • Genetics of mental disorders
  • Bioinformatics
  • Transcriptional gene regulation
  • Genomics
Our genetics experts are prolific authors of research publications and have provided litigation support in numerous legal cases.
