AAFS 2026
AAFS TV Returns for 2026!
The American Academy of Forensic Sciences is excited to announce we are once again partnering with international knowledge-driven media company, WebsEdge, to bring AAFS TV to the 78th Annual Scientific Conference. AAFS TV brings a thrilling element to the conference, using video to enhance your experience throughout this world-leading event. It serves as a unique platform to help highlight the most important issues and developments in forensic science.
AAFS TV will produce a new daily episode throughout the conference featuring:
News and Insights from the Conference: On-site AAFS TV will film interviews, capture key highlights, and hear delegates' insights and reactions from around the conference.
In-Depth Reports: Five-minute documentary-style films from universities, institutions, and organizations at the cutting edge of robotics are looking to highlight programs, case studies, and ongoing initiatives that are making a difference.
You will be able to view AAFS TV here on the conference website, on YouTube, onsite at the conference, and across social media channels.
In the lead-up to the 78th Annual Scientific Conference, WebsEdge will be reaching out to organizations to discuss the opportunity of producing a film about their work to be included in the AAFS TV Thought Leadership Film Series. There is a cost to be featured on these pre-recorded slots, and only a limited number of organizations will be able to take part this year.
