The Center for Forensic Science Research and Education (CFSRE), in collaboration with the National Network of Public Health Institute (NNPHI) and the Public Health Institute (PHI), is pleased to announce a new symposium series focusing attention on improvements to accuracy and consistency in recording cause and manner of death in drug toxicity cases. We invite medicolegal death investigation professionals to a free, CME and CE eligible ten-part series focusing on the latest challenges and best practices in the investigation and certification of these often-complex cases. This is the latest in a multi-year program to share best practices, expand our understanding of these deaths, reach new audiences, and stay current with the continuing drug overdose crisis in the U.S.

Welcome to the 2025 Current Trends in Forensic Toxicology Symposium,
The theme for this year's conference is “Innovating for a Smarter, Sustainable, and Efficient Future in Forensic Toxicology.” This year, we focus on the pressing need to embrace innovation that not only enhances our field's efficiency but also ensures a sustainable approach to forensic toxicology practices. This theme reflects the daily reality faced by many professionals: the challenge of delivering exceptional work while being asked to do more with fewer resources, all without compromising the quality and reliability of results.
