Twins Day Research 2007

Due to unforseen delays the 2007 Twins Day data will not be available until approximately September 1, 2008. We apologize for this delay.

The Twins Days event, organized by the Twins Day Festival Committee Inc., is an annual event for twins. The number of twins that attend provides an opportunity to obtain an adequate sampling of DNA, and digital recordings of the fingerprints and palm prints of identical and fraternal twins. All data collected will be utilized for future research in support of the scientific bases of fingerprint identification.

The IAI was founded in October of 1915 with twenty-two members which has now grown to a healthy membership well over 6,800. The IAI prides itself on being a prestigious and professional association with continued training for its members pursuing the advancement of forensic disciplines though education. The data collected at Twins Days will aid considerably in future studies in the science of fingerprint identification. We thank you!
