Welcome to the 2011 WCF meeting.The meeting this year, with the theme “Science, Justice and Peace”, promises to be exciting and informative.
Last year, the WCF welcomed many forensic practitioners with a keen interest in international cooperation and the exchange of knowledge in many fields. I and all the participants thoroughly enjoyed that conference; we found it to provide excellent insight into the current status of forensic science and future applications in various disciplines. This year the focus is on High-tech implementation used for identification, environmental issues and forensic microbiology. This is an opportunity for experts from around the world to share ideas and discuss issues that we all have in common related to forensic investigation and analysis. I already made plan to attend the conference and looking forward to learn the cutting edge technology that can be used to enhance criminal investigations in disciplines of forensic science from crime scene to environmental studies.
