JFS Announces Eighth Forensic Lab Talks Seminar!

I am delighted to announce that the eighth Journal of Forensic Sciences (JFS) Forensic Lab Talks Seminar, titled High Performance Computing Tools to Identify Novel Psychoactive Substances in Toxicology Samples, is scheduled for August 21 at 1:00pm ET. The seminar will be presented by Dr. Aaron Shapiro, Associate Scientific Director, Provincial Toxicology Centre, British Columbia Centre for Disease Control, and Clinical Assistant Professor, Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, University of British Columbia.   

Additional information on this virtual seminar, as well as the link to register, will be forthcoming soon. 

As announced previously, JFS has joined forces with Wiley to present a series of virtual educational seminars for forensic scientists. The series covers a range of topics important to our forensic community highlighting the most recent methods and best practices in areas such as forensic chemistry (covering spectroscopy, microscopy, and other techniques), toxicology, trace evidence, DNA analysis, and many more.  

The Forensic Lab Talks Seminar Series is provided FREE OF CHARGE as a value-added member benefit.

The seventh Forensic Lab Talks seminar, titled Analytical Characterization of Emerging Drugs – Practical Approaches to Address Forensic Science Challenges, presented by Dr. Alex Krotulski, was a tremendous success with approximately 1,400 registrants. We were thrilled by the interest shown from the forensic community for our FLT #7 seminar and for those who participated, thank you again for contributing to its success. 

We are excited about offering our eighth Forensic Lab Talks virtual educational seminar on August 21, 2024. PLEASE SAVE THE DATE!

Thank you for your continued support of JFS and its initiatives. For questions about the seminar series, please contact JFS Managing Editor Brenda Peat at bpeat@aafs.org.
