TIAFT Regional

5th South American Regional Meeting
V Encontro Regional de Toxicologia Forense de America Latina

TIAFT's fifth regional meeting BrazilLatin America had a first regional meeting in 2005 in La Plata, Argentina, followed by meetings in Santiago (Chile), Bogotá (Colombia) and, recently, by the 2008 meeting in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Fifth Latin American Regional Meeting to be held in Brazil in 2009 will be an unique moment for the discussion about the developments and difficulties faced by forensic toxicology in our continent. The specificity of the themes, focusing in the application of the toxicological knowledge to the needs of the Law, is especially useful and fascinating for all those working on this exciting field.
