The Forensic Digest E-Journal: The Official Publication of
the International Academy of Forensic Professionals and of their sister
organization, Academy of Forensic Nursing Science.
The publication is
designed to appeal to our wide and varied readership and reflects our
recognition of the many disciplines, in addition to nursing, involved in
forensic practice. We promise to bring you articles that reflect issues of
interest and that are thought-provoking and informative. The editorial staffs
are committed to the journalistic ideal of excellence. Please enjoy this first
edition and make plans to write for The Forensic Digest.
The Academy of Forensic Nursing Science (AFNS) is a
professional, contemporary and affordable member-focused organization that works
toward providing what the working forensic professional really needs on a daily
basis. Our members have the benefit of access, communication and networking with
distinguished forensic science experts who represent an extensive array of
interdisciplinary expertise.
So what is so unique about this academy?
More focused than an Association, an Academy provides a group of authorities and
leaders in a field who are actively involved in establishing and evaluating
standards, benchmarking the highest level of forensic science and related
practice, and, who solve complex problems or predict or plan future
developments, and generate ideas for extending the profession. Our Academy
provides a clearinghouse of useful information regarding contemporary trends and
issues in the medico-legal setting, expanding and extending suggestions and
strategies, examining new scientific discoveries as they relate toward
establishing optimal and effective outcomes in forensic science.
If you
are interested in forensic science and have wanted all of the benefits of a
professional organization without the typical organizational structure, the
Academy of Forensic Nursing Science (AFNS) was developed with you in
mind!
