Join us at ISHI 2023

Join us at the 34th International Symposium on human identification (ISHI) in Denver, Colorado, September 18-21, 2023 as we redefine forensics with NGS. Come network and engage with global forensic experts to learn about the latest trends in HID and forensics. Talk to our HID specialists and discover the newest advances in DNA technology.

Check out our agenda at ISHI 34:

  • Stop by our booth #314 to learn how QIAGEN products can be used to create better outcomes for your investigations.
  • We will announce the winner of our very popular HIDden talent T-shirt contest. Pick up your QIAGEN t-shirt with the winner’s creation and see what forensics means to them.
  • Register for our evening showcase to hear from your peers on how they’ve integrated NGS into their regular casework. We’ll also celebrate the FBI’s NDIS approval of the ForenSeq MainstAY kit.
