Register today for the upcoming Neuroscience and the Law: Violence audio/webcast, which will be on June 16, 2011 from 12noon - 1:30pm CDT.
Observers often describe America as a violence-prone society, and judges and prosecutors must address the consequences of violent behavior on a daily basis. Scientific advances in studying the human brain have given us new insight into brain structure and function that appear to play a role in triggering violence. Relatively recent developments in brain imaging have enabled neuroscientists to address this relationship in great detail, which this program will address.
The ABA Section of Science & Technology Law and the American Association for the Advancement of Science are proud to present the series.
