Fire investigators should take note of the following events to be held in Nottingham, England on the week of 5-9 July 2010.

The first three days of the week, 5-7 July, Interflam 2010 will be held. This is the largest international research conference in the fire safety field. Of special note to investigators is that the program will feature a specific session on fire investigation/forensics topics. But the whole conference should be of interest to investigators, since much of the other material will focus on fire dynamics developments that are of relevance.

The last two days, 8-9 July 2010 is an event with separate registration, but equally of importance to investigators. The Principles of Electrical Fires will be taught by Vyto Babrauskas. This is the only course on electrical aspects of fire investigation which is based on developing a comprehensive scientific understanding of electrical fires and originates from the research work done to develop the Ignition Handbook.
