The scientists and examiners who developed the identification and analysis techniques this atlas's Forensic Disciplines and Methods section documents, from Alphonse Bertillon's anthropometric identification system and Francis Galton and Edward Henry's fingerprint classification through Edmond Locard's exchange principle, Alec Jeffreys's DNA fingerprinting and Barbara Rae-Venter's investigative genetic genealogy. Belongs here: any person whose primary documented contribution is developing, pioneering or practicing a forensic identification or analysis technique. Does not belong here: theorists whose contribution is an explanatory framework for why crime occurs rather than a technique for investigating it, grouped under Criminological Theorists and Social Scientists, or officials whose primary role was leading or operating a law enforcement agency rather than developing forensic method, grouped under Law Enforcement and Criminal Justice Officials. This grouping is a browsing convenience organized around each person's primary documented professional role and is not a ranking or a complete account of a career; the placement reflects where their most significant documented contribution actually sits.
