Advancing Justice for the Missing and Unidentified Through Research - 2024 NIJ Research Conference
September 2024
Forensic science research is developing essential knowledge to fill in the holes in death investigations, creating new ways to identify challenging skeletal remains. These methods inform cause of death, time of death, and familial relationships to guide investigations, identify suspects, support prosecutions, and bring justice to families.
