A NATIONAL network to identify, initiate and co-ordinate industry-focused forensic research and innovation will seek up to $80 million to ensure its existence beyond the next three years.
The Australian Future Forensics Innovation Network last week received $2m from the Queensland government's Smart Futures Fund's National and International Research Alliances Program.
The network, which was developed out of a need to have a co-ordinated national strategy for forensic science research and development, has also received $4.8m from its 19 partner organisations.
