Welcome

Welcome to the 5th Triennial meeting of the European Academy of Forensic Science (EAFS). We are delighted to host the first UK meeting of EAFS in Glasgow at the University of Strathclyde. The theme of the meeting is knowledge exchange: the cycle of knowledge creation, transfer and application. This includes presentations from high profile experts from outside and from within forensic science on a wide range of related topics including research and development, education and training, standards and competence. There will also be a range of presentations on specific areas of forensic science such as digital evidence, trace evidence, DNA and others. We have also developed an exciting program of workshops which will focus on the development of practical skills facilitated by experts in the field. The full scientific program is now detailed on this web site. In addition to the scientific program you can expect an enjoyable social program and the very best of Scottish hospitality, including whisky tasting and a ceilidh after the formal dinner. We look forward to meeting you in Glasgow.
