如果您对神经科学与法律的交叉领域感兴趣,请今晚晚上 10 点(美国东部时间,请查阅当地节目列表)收看您当地的 PBS 电视台,观看新的两部分系列节目《大脑审判》的第一集。第一集将我们带到纽约南区真实的法庭,法官 Jed S. Rakoff 正在那里审理一起年轻男子被控抢劫和谋杀的案件。在整个案件中,主持人艾伦·阿尔达 (Alan Alda) 带我们拜访了多位神经科学家和学者,他们解释了神经科学的进步可能在未来刑事案件中应用的各种方式。

《大脑审判》是思考法律和神经科学如何交叉的绝佳入门。事实上,我想我可能会向人们推荐这个节目,当他们不可避免地问我如何将神经科学和公共政策结合在研究生课程中时。我很幸运地看到该节目中出现的两位学者,Jed Rakoff 法官和杜克大学法学教授 Nita Farahany,在我的研究生课程研讨会系列中发表演讲。

第一集“确定罪责”今晚播出,内容涉及测谎、种族偏见和目击者重建。该系列的第二集“决定惩罚”将于 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.
