Date Written: May 23, 2011
Abstract
This talk will briefly describe a brain-imaging study, currently being conducted, of the role of the criminal defendant's race in juror decision-making. It will then touch on some of the larger legal and Constitutional questions that would arise if race were ultimately found to have a significant impact on jury decisions.
