Abstract
Microbial forensics is currently organized as a subspecialty of epidemiology or of traditional forensics, and its growth into its own discipline will proceed for many years. However, the necessity for a separate discipline of microbial forensics will be dependent on the number of future biocrime events and the resources available for such specific investigations.
