Division/Committee: [ANYL: Division of Analytical Chemistry]

The chemical forensics session focuses on developments in analytical and chemometric methods that can support the forensic analysis and source attribution of chemical threat agents such as chemical warfare agents, toxic industrial chemicals, explosives, pesticides, pharmaceutical materials, and their precursors. This session would welcome presentations including advancements in sample collection, analysis, and data processing or interpretation that contribute to a fundamental understanding of chemical attribution signatures and their role in supporting an investigation. Much of this chemical forensic work is of interest to the Chemical Forensics International Working Group (CFITWG), a group of ad hoc researchers, practitioners, and policy experts administered by the U.S. Department of State. Researchers who use analytical chemistry methods for similar purposes, including feature-comparison methods in traditional forensic investigations, are also encouraged to participate.
