Bracketing off population does not advance ethical reflection on EVCs: A reply to Kayser and Schneider
Get PDFIn a recent contribution to this journal, Kayser and Schneider reviewed the relevance of external visible characteristics (EVCs) for criminal investigation [1]. Their aim was to broaden the debate about the scientific, legal, and ethical dimensions of the use of EVCs for criminal investigation, which will help to achieve a firm legal basis for the application of EVCs eventually. While we applaud Kayser's and Schneider's overall very thoughtful and nuanced discussion of this topic, we were surprised to read that they suggest that a discussion of ‘the challenges of using problematic definitions of populations […] has to be kept separate from using EVCs’ (p. 158). In contrast to these authors, we contend that questions about defining populations – both at the level of scientific research, and the application of EVCs in criminal investigation – lie at the core of most social, ethical, and legal issues raised by the translation of EVCs into forensic and police practice

Ethical, Social and Policy Aspects of Forensic Genetics: A Systematic Review
No full textThe EUROFORGEN Network of Excellence has brought together some of the leading individuals and groups in European forensic genetic research in order to extend existing collaborations as well as improve knowledge of innovations in this field of research and operation amongst potential users, policy makers and the general public. This systematic review contributes to one of the Network’s goals - to map the landscape of recent and contemporary social, legal and ethical debates about forensic genetics in Europe and beyond. The review describes the history of forensic genetics, and situates current research in this field within the broader research and innovation agenda of the European Union. It documents the three waves of recent social and ethical commentaries on the criminal justice uses of developments in forensic genetic research and pays particular attention to the variety of standpoints – both affirmative and critical – that can be found in these commentaries
Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
