如果您對神經科學與法律的交叉領域感興趣,請今晚晚上 10 點(美國東部時間,請查閱當地節目列表)收看您當地的 PBS 電視臺,觀看新的兩部分系列節目《大腦審判》的第一集。第一集將我們帶到紐約南區真實的法庭,法官 Jed S. Rakoff 正在那裡審理一起年輕男子被控搶劫和謀殺的案件。在整個案件中,主持人艾倫·阿爾達 (Alan Alda) 帶我們拜訪了多位神經科學家和學者,他們解釋了神經科學的進步可能在未來刑事案件中應用的各種方式。

《大腦審判》是思考法律和神經科學如何交叉的絕佳入門。事實上,我想我可能會向人們推薦這個節目,當他們不可避免地問我如何將神經科學和公共政策結合在研究生課程中時。我很幸運地看到該節目中出現的兩位學者,Jed Rakoff 法官和杜克大學法學教授 Nita Farahany,在我的研究生課程研討會系列中發表演講。

第一集“確定罪責”今晚播出,內容涉及測謊、種族偏見和目擊者重建。該系列的第二集“決定懲罰”將於 9 月 18 日播出。

About Princess Ojiaku

Hey there! I'm a graduate student at the University of Wisconsin Madison in the Neuroscience and Public Policy program. I'm also a musician who played in two bands in North Carolina, one called Pink Flag and another called Deals. My personal passions are science, music, and cycling as transportation.

I got into science as a kid while tagging along and watching my mom do experiments in her lab. I found that while I loved science, I didn't want to be alone in an ivory tower, crunching data that few others would understand. I also noticed that many other people thought science was this scary and incomprehensible entity of obscurity. When I realized that there were people working to make science fun and accessible to everyone, I knew that this was exactly what I wanted to do. The two things I find the most immensely interesting and continually impressing are music and neuroscience, so these are the topics that I'll focus on in my blog. Philosophy and politics are my second loves, so I might pop in an occasional post on these topics as well. Ultimately I am here to share things that give me wonder. I hope that reading Science with Moxie gives you a bit of that wonder too.
