We discuss the intersection of law and brain science to understand how (and if) insights from neuroscience can make the legal system more just and effective with Francis X. Shen, Professor of Law and McKnight Presidential Fellow at University of Minnesota, Executive Director of Education and Outreach at the MacArthur Foundation Research Network on Law and Neuroscience, and Executive Director of the Harvard MGH Center for Law, Brain, and Behavior. Shen elaborates on the issues neurolaw is grappling with and where the limits of the field may lie.

This is the first part of our Neuroscience & the Law series, a multi-part exploration of the overlap between brain science and the legal system. Stay tuned for our next entry on Juvenile Justice.
