The Victorian Institute Of Forensic Medicine (VIFM) was established after a long and persistent campaign to create an organization dedicated to providing reliable forensic services of the highest quality to the Victorian justice system and community.

As such, it attracted a dedicated group of people. These original staff members, many of who are still working at the Victorian Institute Of Forensic Medicine, were eager to build an organization that is a trusted and innovative leader in global forensic medicine and science.

Throughout this 30 year history, we have continued to attract people who are dedicated to their particular fields of expertise and are committed to making a positive contribution to the community's health and safety.
