Illuminating the Law: How Science Can Help Us Identify and Address Bias in the Criminal Justice System
Adam Benforado’s principal interest is in applying insights from the mind sciences—most notably cognitive psychology—to law and legal theory. Collaborating with psychologists on novel experiments, Professor Benforado is focused on developing a more realistic understanding of the behavior of legal actors.
Join us for this Special Seminar to discuss how bias influences the criminal justice system in the United States and how these insights can inform our practice of science.
