《科學與司法》提供了一個論壇，以促進在法醫(yī)學社區(qū)和刑事司法部門引發(fā)辯論的主題上的原創(chuàng)文章、評論和通信的交流和出版。該雜志提供了一個媒介，在這個媒介中，可以對將科學應用于法律程序的各個方面進行辯論和進展。《科學與司法》每年出版六次，主要對在相關領域從事司法工作的科學家及其同事感興趣。它主要負責出版符合其國際學術地位的正式科學論文，但不接受任何描述不符合嚴格道德標準的動物實驗的文章。

Science & Justice provides a forum to promote communication and publication of original articles, reviews and correspondence on subjects that spark debates within the Forensic Science Community and the criminal justice sector. The journal provides a medium whereby all aspects of applying science to legal proceedings can be debated and progressed. Science & Justice is published six times a year, and will be of interest primarily to practising forensic scientists and their colleagues in related fields. It is chiefly concerned with the publication of formal scientific papers, in keeping with its international learned status, but will not accept any article describing experimentation on animals which does not meet strict ethical standards.
