CALL FOR PAPERSThe 8th International Conference on Evidence Law and Forensic Science(ICELFS 2026)Conference ThemeRethinking Evidence Law and Forensic Science in the Age of Artificial IntelligencePlace and TimeUniversity of Coimbra, Portugal，13-15July

The accelerating integration of artificial intelligence into investigative, forensic, and judicial practices presents both unprecedented opportunities and profound challenges. As societies navigate the complexity of data-driven decision-making, algorithmic evidence, and technologically mediated fact-finding, the foundations of the judicial system face new pressures and demand renewed scholarly reflection.

We invite contributions that explore how digitalisation, algorithmic methods, and scientific innovation are reshaping evidentiary systems. Submissions should address precise challenges at the intersection of evidence law, forensic science, and AI-driven investigation, with emphasis on methodological, epistemic, and normative implications.

We warmly welcome submissions addressing the broad landscape of judicial proof and evidence science, including but not limited to the following areas:

I.Theories, Models and Methodologiesof Judicial ProofII.Analysis of Evidence and Evidentiary ReasoningIII.Rules of Evidence: Aid, Hindrance or Irrelevant to the Pursuit of Truth?IV.Development, Innovation, and Standardization of Forensic Science PracticesV.New Frontiers in Scientific Evidence(includingNew Challenges to Courtroom Presentation andNovelForms of Evidence)Ⅵ.Implications of Technology-Driven EvidenceforHuman Rights and the Rule of LawⅦ.Interdisciplinary and Comparative Approaches toProcedural Law andJudicial Proof
