Ang Massively Parallel Sequencing (MPS) ay binago ang forensic DNA analysis sa pamamagitan ng kakayahang suriin ng mga siyentipiko ang maraming DNA markers nang sabay-sabay at sa mas detalyadong paraan kumpara sa tradisyunal na pamamaraan. Gayunpaman, hindi pa rin malawak ang paggamit ng MPS sa mga bansa sa Timog-Silangang Asya.

Massively parallel sequencing (MPS) has transformed forensic DNA analysis by allowing scientists to examine multiple DNA markers at the same time and in much greater detail than older methods. Even so, MPS is still not widely used in Southeast Asian countries. Researchers from the University of the Philippines Diliman – College of Science’s Natural Sciences Research Institute (UPD-CS NSRI) reviewed the use of MPS in forensic DNA laboratories across the region to identify the key challenges to its adoption.
