ČSSFG

The Czech and Slovak Society of Forensic Genetics (ČSSFG) is an international scientific society bringing together specialists in forensic genetics, also known as forensic DNA analysis. It welcomes both professionals working in the field and members of the public interested in learning more. The society serves as a resource for its members, researchers and wider community, sharing information about forensic genetics, its history and the methods used in the discipline.

Forensic genetics has applications ranging from the examination of crime-scene traces and paternity testing to identifying victims of mass disasters. It can also support genetic analysis of historic burial sites and royal tombs, research into shared ancestry through DNA, and the verification of wine authenticity. ČSSFG’s website provides introductions to these topics, information about the society’s statutes, governing bodies and financial resources, and contact details. Visitors can also access downloadable materials, an application portal and archived content, including the society’s Forensica section. Through these resources, ČSSFG helps make knowledge about forensic DNA analysis accessible to experts and interested non-specialists alike.
