Teaching Professor, Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology
Director, Forensic and Investigative Sciences Program
Indiana University
Dr. Gina Londino-Smolar is currently a teaching professor in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology and Director of the Forensic and Investigative Sciences program. She has taught multiple courses in forensic science and chemistry, including instrumentation, analysis chemistry, forensic chemistry, and forensic microscopy for both undergraduate and graduate students. Currently, Gina teaches the introductory courses in forensic science both face-to-face and online, and works with online teaching faculty through IU in creation of online material. Since 2006, Gina has been a part of the forensic science program and had direct experience with the FEPAC accreditation process of the forensic and investigative sciences program. Throughout her time at IU, she has developed multiple courses in forensic science, along with participating in the development of courses taught online to reach out to other student populations. She has published a laboratory manual, The Basics of Investigating Forensic Science: A Laboratory Manual, for undergraduate forensic science laboratory courses for non-science majors. Gina has also developed an online forensic science laboratory course for non-science majors to fulfill laboratory credit that many programs outside of science require. Gina is heavy involved in distance education at IU and with academic integrity initiatives. She is currently a Fellow of the American Academy of Forensic Sciences (AAFS) and the Chair of the General Section, a Trustees for the Forensic Science Foundation Board, a charter member of the American Society of Trace Evidence Examiners, and a member of the American Chemical Society (ACS).
