Forensic DNA experts to gather for 30th International Symposium on Human Identification (ISHI) September 23-26 2019 in Palm Springs

August 21, 2019 By DefenseConference.com

The 30th International Symposium on Human Identification (ISHI), the world’s largest annual meeting focusing entirely on DNA forensics, will draw nearly 1000 law enforcement professionals and scientists to Palm Springs, CA next month to collaborate on the newest forensic technologies and industry trends. Workshops and presentations will cover current issues in forensic DNA analysis including legislative updates, rapid DNA technology, prosecution of cold case sex crimes, genetic genealogy and more. Paul Holes, a detective who helped track down the infamous Golden State Killer, will give the keynote address about how investigative genealogy techniques led to an arrest in the case that had remained unsolved for more than 20 years.

ISHI 30 runs September 23-26. Attendees will include industry experts from the FBI (including the CODIS Unit), the Department of Justice, top research universities, public and private forensic labs, expert DNA witnesses, and various state forensic science bureaus, police departments and state attorneys’ offices. During the three-day general session, leaders in the field will present on the latest developments in forensic DNA research, process and technique. Topics will include:

Large Scale DNA Identification of Missing Persons
Human Trafficking – A Complex Challenge for Forensic Science
The 2018 Camp Fire: Integration of Rapid DNA into Disaster Victim Identification
CODIS Evolution-Revisiting Cold Cases
What Does the Future Hold for Forensics?
