[Forum SIS] Fwd: Deadline abstract submission ICFIS2014 extended to March 13!

[Julia Mortera]

*The deadline for abstract submission for ICFIS2014 
<http://icfis2014.org> has been extended to March 13.*
*
*KOG

We have already received 75 abstracts, but we want to give even more 
people the opportunity to submit an abstract.

The *9th International Conference on Forensic Inference and Statistics* 
<http://icfis2014.org/> will take place from *19 to 22 August 2014* at 
Leiden University 
<http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6795661/ICFIS2014/venue.html>, the 
Netherlands. Leiden is a beautiful city with a large number of monuments 
and canals, and has a 15 minutes train link to Amsterdam Schiphol 
International Airport, one of the main gates of Europe.

This international conference - in short *ICFIS2014* 
<http://icfis2014.org/> - unites lawyers, statisticians and forensic 
scientists in their interest in optimal reasoning concerning forensic 
evidence. Technical developments in biological, physical, chemical and 
digital forensic disciplines are fast and have an increasing impact on 
law enforcement and the justice system. Examples are DNA profiling, 
fingerprint and illicit drug analysis, and analysis of large digital 
data-sets for intelligence purposes. Whatever the type of evidence, it 
can only be of value when it is properly gathered, analyzed, evaluated, 
and communicated by the scientist. Moreover, it should be understood by 
the legal decision maker. This requires sound statistical and logical 
methods, and good communication between lawyers and scientists.
The conference promotes the interaction between providers and users of 
forensic evidence. It focuses on probabilistic methods for the 
evaluation of forensic evidence, and their use in law and law enforcement.

The conference will provide a forum for oral presentations and posters. 
Furthermore, the first day of the conference will consist of workshops. 
Selection by the scientific committee of the contributions for the final 
program is based on abstracts.

If you haven't done so already, please submit your abstract by digitally 
filling out the form you can download from the website 
<http://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/6795661/ICFIS2014/abstracts.html>, 
and sending it to abstracts at icfis2014.org <mailto:abstracts at icfis2014.org>.

*The final deadline for abstract submission is March 13, 2014. *

The website lists the themes

See you at ICFIS2014!

Charles Berger and Marjan Sjerps,
on behalf of the organizing and scientific committee
