FORREST: The Forensic Institute Research Network (FIRN)

FORREST Conference

“One of the most useful meetings I’ve attended.”
(Comment from a FORREST 2006 attendee)

FORensic RESearch and Teaching (FORREST) is an annual international academic conference of interest to academics, lawyers, law enforcement, and forensic practitioners, originally organised jointly by The Forensic Institute Research Network (FIRN) and The Higher Education Academy (HEA) in the UK.

The purpose of FORREST is to present the latest and most relevant work in forensic research and teaching. It is the only conference to deal specifically with the ever-increasing topic of forensic education. Reviews, case studies, applications, and research programmes are delivered by lectures and workshops that allow every delegate to find and explore something of interest and value to them. The conference also provides excellent opportunities for informal networking and sharing of ideas.

FORREST 2011 was held at Nottingham University, the 2012 conference is being organised by University of Abertay.
