Dear Colleagues and friends
Despite advancements in many different fields of forensics sciences, its progress presently takes much longer than necessary, making the way in Forensics disappointingly slow.
This impacts the efficiency of criminal investigations and causes limited implementation of new advances in Court of Law.
The III International Caparica Conference in Translational Forensics aims to connect in a transversal way all of us involved in Forensics with the objective of join together as many forensic disciplines as possible.
The idea is to share the latest advances in forensic research and forensic technology as well as to report on their implementation in real cases.
Yours truly
