WE INVESTIGATE SOLUTIONS TO CHEMICAL AND
FORENSIC PROBLEMS USING SCIENTIFIC TOOLS.
Created in 2018 from the INQUIFOR group (recognized in 2010), the group belongs to the Department of Analytical
Chemistry, Physical Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of the University of Alcalá (UAH).
CINQUIFOR has carried out several
research projects successfully. Three
of them were financed by the
European Union.
The group publishes in journals with a
high impact index, located on the first
quartiles. It counts with more than 100
international publications.
Based on its win-win philosophy,
CINQUIFOR has established partnerships
with numerous prestigious recognized
institutions.
How do we work?
What defines us?
Different approach.
Our research is based on purposes
(what is the problem and the objectives to
face it).
The UAH, our home.
CINQUIFOR is established at the University
of Alcalá (Madrid, Spain), the nerve center
of our activities.
Modern facilities.
We develop our research in several
laboratories of three different buildings at
the University of Alcalá.
Teamwork.
We are all important, we all contribute with
something to build a competitive and
reference group.
Solutions.
We investigate both chemical and forensic
problems and provide scientific solutions
for them.
We train researchers.
Several thesis with the highest
qualification and numerous brilliant Final
Degree and Master thesis guarantee us.
Quality of a reference.
CINQUIFOR is a reference quality group
in the world of Forensic Sciences
research.
Exceptional atmosphere.
We offer a good work environment,
where we all seek to improve ourselves
every day.
We are a vanguard group that
cooperates with institutions inside and
outside the academic sphere.
Continuous movement.
We are always looking for opportunities
and constantly recycling ourselves to do
quality research.
Cooperation between institutions.

Our team
The group is constituted by an interdisciplinary group of research professionals with extensive experience in Chemical,
Forensics, Pharmaceutical, Food Technology, and Multivariate and Data Mining Sciences. Although the base on which it is held
is fixed, CINQUIFOR is a dynamic group that gets reinforced with undergraduate, master and doctoral students, and visitors
from other institutions and countries.
