Daniel A. Martell, PhD
2014-15 AAFS President
It is my honor as President of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences to welcome you to Orlando for the 67thAnnual Scientific
Meeting. The theme for our 2015 meeting is Celebrating the Forensic Science Family. I am excited to experience the breadth and
diversity of our membership and to witness the synergy generated when forensic scientists come together to collaborate in the pursuit
of truth and justice.
I welcome our international attendees from around the globe, our Fellows and long-time Academy veterans, and especially our newest
members and students, for some of whom this may be their first meeting. I invite all of you, if you see me while you are here, to stop
and to say hello. I look forward to the opportunity to meet and welcome you personally.
An outstanding program awaits you, including the Interdisciplinary Symposium where AAFS past presidents will discuss the future of
forensic science; the Plenary Session which will focus on the phenomenon of cognitive bias and the ways in which it can covertly
undermine our conclusions; and a scientific program jam-packed with special events including several outstanding multidisciplinary
sessions and special programs dedicated to the best and brightest of our young forensic scientists as we celebrate 20 years of the Young
Forensic Scientists Forum.
While we are gathered here together, I hope you will take time to seek out and thank your mentors for guiding you; to engage in some
of the Academy’s new and old traditions; to widen your circle of AAFS colleagues and friends; and that you come away feeling
energized and reinvigorated in your own pursuit of forensic knowledge and expertise.
I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to the success of this year’s meeting, including the awesome organizational efforts
of AAFS Program Chair Ken Williams and Program Co-Chair andy Baker, together with the entire Annual Meeting Program
Committee. Their hard work will be well reflected in the meeting we are all about to experience. To all of you who submitted your
work and have been selected to present new science at this meeting, both congratulations and heartfelt thanks. This is the true core of
our mission: to advance science and its application to the legal system.
It has been a wonderful and rewarding experience for me this past year to serve as president of our Academy, and a personal honor to
be the first forensic psychologist entrusted to serve in that capacity. I want to extend a particularly hearty handshake to the academy
staff, who undertake such a monumental effort and ensure that our experience as Academy members is always outstanding. Their talent
and professionalism, marshalled with consummate skill by Executive Director anne Warren, has made this year a particular pleasure
for me both personally and professionally.
It will be my great privilege this week to pass the chain of office to Victor Weednwho will assume the mantle for the coming year. I
take great comfort in knowing that the Academy family will find itself in such capable hands. My best to all of you as we celebrate
who we are, where we have come from, and where the future will be taking us.

aBOUT THE aaFS
ORLandO2015 ORLandO2015
For sixty-seven years, the AAFS has served a distinguished and diverse membership. Its 6,653 members are divided into eleven sections
spanning the forensic enterprise. Included among the Academy’s members are physicians, attorneys, dentists, toxicologists,
anthropologists, document examiners, digital evidence experts, psychiatrists, engineers, physicists, chemists, criminalists, educators, and
others. Representing all 50 United States, Canada, and 70 other countries worldwide, they actively practice forensic science and, in many
cases, teach and conduct research in the field as well. Each section provides opportunities for professional development, personal
contacts, awards, and recognition. Many sections publish periodic newsletters and mailings which keep their members abreast of
activities and developments in their fields.
The American Academy of Forensic Sciences is a multi-disciplinary professional organization that provides leadership to advance
science and its application to the legal system. The objectives of the Academy are to promote professionalism, integrity, competency,
education, foster research, improve practice, and encourage collaboration in the forensic sciences. It does so via the Journal of Forensic
Sciences(its internationally recognized scientific journal), newsletters, its website, its annual scientific meeting, the conduct of webinars,
seminars, and meetings, and the initiation of actions and reactions to various issues of concern. For its members and affiliates, AAFS
provides expert witness referrals, job opportunity listings, as well as scientific reference studies. As the world’s most prestigious forensic
science organization, the AAFS represents its membership to the public and serves as the focal point for public information concerning
the forensic science profession. Founded in 1948, the AAFS is headquartered in Colorado Springs, CO.
aaFS annual Scientific Meeting
Each February, the AAFS scientific meeting gathers together approximately 5,000 world-renowned professionals to present the most
current information, research, and updates in their fields. More than 900 scientific papers, seminars, workshops, and other special
sessions are presented. In addition, approximately 180 exhibitors will be present to showcase the cutting-edge technology and services
of this ever-changing profession.
