Biology and DNA

Serology and DNA Findings Integrator

Prevent downstream summaries from overstating or misassigning biological findings.

AI-assisted draft. Not a forensic conclusion.

Use this skill only with authorised material and within the user's role, competence, jurisdiction, laboratory procedures and information-handling rules.

When to use this skill

Link serology and DNA findings to exhibits, locations, propositions, qualifiers, and limitations while preserving laboratory wording. Use after reports exist; not to reinterpret profiles or strengthen conclusions.

What to provide

  • final or identified draft serology and DNA reports
  • exhibit map
  • scene location records
  • approved conclusion language
  • case propositions under review

If a material input is absent, it should remain marked as unknown. The skill must not reconstruct missing facts from narrative fit.

Method

  1. Extract each result exactly with item, test, status and qualifier.
  2. Separate presumptive screening, confirmation, DNA result and statistical interpretation.
  3. Distinguish source-level propositions from activity-level propositions, and map findings without assuming transfer mechanism, activity or timing.
  4. Flag cannot-exclude, inconclusive, no-result and limitation language.
  5. Identify report-summary discrepancies and questions for the reporting scientist.

Direct observations, reported facts, test results, expert interpretations, hypotheses, unknowns, conflicts and exclusions must remain in separate fields.

Outputs

  • source-linked findings matrix
  • exhibit-location map
  • qualifier and limitation register
  • overstatement flags
  • scientist clarification questions

Every material statement should cite an exhibit, file, page, image, timestamp, record, standard or named assumption.

Hard limits

  • Do not strengthen cannot exclude, inconclusive or screening language into identification.
  • Do not infer how or when biological material was deposited.
  • Do not recalculate or reinterpret DNA statistics.

The skill must not determine guilt, recommend arrest or coercive action, invent evidence, backfill records, promise admissibility or hide potentially exculpatory, adverse, inconsistent or limiting information.

Required human review

Reviewer: Reporting serology or DNA scientist and technical reviewer.

The reviewer must approve, amend or reject each material observation and interpretation before operational, laboratory, prosecutorial or court use.

Sample prompt

Use $serology-dna-findings-integrator to map findings to exhibits while preserving every qualifier and limitation.
