"the Real CSI"
CSI: Crime Scene Investigation is an American crime / drama television series that trails the investigations of a team of Las Vegas forensic scientists as they unveil the circumstances behind mysterious and unusual deaths and other crimes. So popular is this made for TV series that its impact has morphed from purely fictional entertainment to real life crime and punishment.
Now you have an opportunity to learn about and witness “the Real CSI” – a one-day conference sponsored by the BC Society of Laboratory Science [BCSLS] in partnership with the new Centre for Forensic Research at Simon Fraser University and the BCIT Centre for Forensics and Security Technology Studies.
This one-day conference will feature several of the most renowned forensic experts who now make up the scientific staff of both Centres.
