Welcome Forensic Science Ireland is proud to host the European Academy of Forensic Science (EAFS 2025) in Dublin in the same year that our organisation celebrates the 50th Anniversary of its foundation.
EAFS is the biggest European forensic science event and occurs once every 3 years. It brings together over 1200 forensic science practitioners, stakeholders and partners from across the forensic science global community to showcase the depth and breadth of developments in forensic science.
Concurrently, FSI will also host the Annual Meeting of the European Network of Forensic Science Institutes (ENFSI) – consisting of the Directors of all major forensic institutes across Europe. It is a privilege for FSI to host these events in Dublin in May 2025.
FSI is located in Celbridge in Co. Kildare in a new award-winning building. We have 215 staff made up of scientists, analysts, administrative staff and seconded members of An Garda Síochána.
Forensic Science Ireland is an associate office of the Department of Justice. We work together to deliver, to best international standards, comprehensive scientific analysis, independent expert opinion, advice and training to support the Irish Justice system.
We provide a range of services across Chemical, DNA & Biological and Physical Analysis functions. FSI is accredited to the ISO17025 standard and holds a Gold Excellence Through People certification.
