Get Grant Funding for Forensic Science Innovation
Summary
NIST is offering grants to academic and industry researchers to advance probabilistic methods in forensic science, focusing on pattern and digital evidence. This funding supports developing new analytical tools, training programs, and community engagement to build competence in this critical field.
Eligibility
Full Description
NIST is soliciting applications to establish a Forensic Science Center of Excellence (COE) in which NIST researchers collaborate with interdisciplinary researchers from academia and industry for the wide-spread adoption of probabilistic methods within the forensic science community, specifically in the areas of pattern evidence and digital evidence, by developing the necessary analytical methods, creating a suitable education and training infrastructure in probabilistic methods for the relevant stakeholders, and engaging the forensic science community to promote competence building.
