Dear colleagues, we invite you to take part in the conference Methods of Forensic Genetics 2025!

Fourth scientific and practical conference “JUDICIAL GENETICS METHODS” will be held face-to-face 15-16 may 2025 year in Moscow on the territory of the hotel complex "Azimut City Olympic Hotel".

ABOUT THE EVENT

The largest Russian-language scientific and practical conference, dedicated to the use of molecular genetic research methods in forensic science and forensic medicine. The main task of the conference is to unite and develop the Russian professional community of forensic geneticists within the framework of an independent scientific and practical forum. All reports within the framework of the conference "METHODS OF JUDICIAL GENETICS" are devoted exclusively to the discussion of methodological and scientific-practical issues of molecular genetic expertise.

The organizer of the project is the research and production company "GORDIZ" with the support of the Skolkovo Innovation Fund.

CONFERENCE OBJECTIVES

1) Organization of an independent professional scientific-practical conference, devoted to the discussion of the urgent tasks of forensic genetics.

2) The conference is aimed at consolidating the Russian community of forensic genetics and organizing productive working interactions of all participants in this professional field.

3) Provide an opportunity for everyone to share their practical experience with colleagues, theoretical knowledge and methodological approaches to solving urgent problems of practical expert activity.

4) Invitation to a constructive dialogue of representatives of all departments and organizations, conducting expert activities in Russia as part of an independent methodological forum.

5) Combining on one platform reports from representatives of all participants in the professional community, containing exclusively information about their own practical results and their own expert experience in solving topical professional issues. Reports, presented at the conference, should highlight the speakers’ own achievements in solving the problems discussed, as well as the most problematic issues of laboratory practice. The submitted reports should not contain a discussion of the results of third parties, as well as the results of the work of related laboratories and departments.
