Emily Faircloth, vice Chair of the Association of Forensic Radiographers reports on the annual meeting of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences in Denver, Colorado. 16th - 21st February 2009.
On Tuesday 17th February 2009, President Barak Obama attended Denver’s Museum of Nature and Science to "pave the way for future prosperity" by signing a $787 billion “Stimulus Bill” (the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009). At the nearby Denver Conference Centre, delegates from around the world were also looking to the future; not of the American economy, but of developments in the rapidly evolving field of forensic science.
The 61st American Academy of Forensic Sciences’ annual scientific meeting included over 500 scientific papers, breakfast seminars and workshops to send the mind reeling with inspiration. A wide range of forensic specialties were represented by delegates who convened from across the globe to present and discuss the most up to date research, current practice and developments.
