The National Center for Forensic Science (NCFS) is a State of Florida University type research center at the University of Central Florida.  Our mission is to provide relevant and responsive forensic science research, training and operational support to communities that rely on science to achieve justice. Our team of chemists, biochemists, physicists and statisticians work individually and in synergistic teams to perform basic and applied forensic science research. The Center also develops and curates databases and provides continuing education in support of the forensic communities.
