NPS Discovery

The Center for Forensic Science Research and Education (CFSRE) is working in collaboration with law enforcement, public health, and public safety agencies to rapidly identify emerging drugs, also known as Novel Psychoactive Substances (NPS), associated with intoxications and adverse events. The information, reports, and resources consolidated here by CFSRE allows for the rapid dissemination of information to stakeholders and affected communities.

CFSRE would like to acknowledge its collaborative NPS partners, including NMS Labs, Temple University, the Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force (OCDETF) of the Department of Justice, and the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) of the Department of Justice, as well as our technical collaborative partners SCIEX and Waters Corporations.

Reports

CFSRE has developed emerging drug reports and interactive tools to provide forensic practitioners, researchers, public health officials and other notable stakeholders with real-time actionable data pertaining to the identification and proliferation of NPS.

Resources
