March: Celebrating women and their scientific brilliance!
In Canada, March marks National Engineering Month! It’s a time to celebrate the remarkable contributions of the engineering community and spark the interest of future engineers and scientists! But March is also dedicated to honoring women, many of whom have made significant strides in science. So let's seize this opportunity to honor all those who have played a pivotal role in shaping our modern world.
Commonalities between forensic engineering and the refrigerator? Preservation... of food or evidence!
While refrigerating food is a safe daily practice today, it wasn't always the case! Traditional methods of preservation such as dehydration, cooking, adding food additives, or canning have limitations, leading many researchers in the 19th century to explore new technology. James Harrison, a journalist, printer, politician, and even an inventor (he must have been bored!), was ultimately the first to obtain a patent for his refrigeration system in 1855.
CEP's Guide to Crafting Your Perfect Gingerbread House!

Rapid technology advances: propelling vehicle investigations in the fast lane
The history of the automobile is simply fascinating! Do you know the secrets of its evolution, spanning a mere 130 years? Discover the impact of innovations on collision reconstructions and vehicle investigations.
Photographs, printing and forensic engineering: from pixels to proof!
Exploiting all material evidence to reconstruct an accident or a loss means above all observing, investigating, recording. So here we are. From its first foundations to the definition that we know today, forensic engineering uses all scientific methods to bring together the elements needed to complete an investigation. What could be more logical than starting our new infographic series on the world's greatest inventions with printing and photography.
DRONES: The Forensic Investigator’s Eye in the Sky
Going where the eyes of the investigators can’t. Getting an unequaled vantage point to take aerial photos and videos of a site. Designing a 3D model of a site based on aerial images to allow a virtual visit to the location and fine tune the investigation. These are the reasons why CEP Forensic has been using drones for the last four years to enhance our forensic investigations. We sat down with our forensic investigator, Caitlin Ringland to talk about this topic.
