C. Conferences & Speaker Series

  1. Visible Solutions: How Neuroimaging Helps Law Re-Envision Pain:  On June 30, 2015, the MGB Center for Law, Brain & Behavior and the Petrie-Flom Center hosted a public symposium bringing together the leading experts in neuroscience and law to wrestle with the critical question: what can, and should, the law do with what we know about pain and the brain? Together, experts and audience members explored how the law can use brain science to get smarter about a subject that touches everyone. To watch videos of the symposium, visit: http://clbb.mgh.harvard.edu/visiblesolutions/
  2. Pain on the Brain: CLBB Posts on Pain Neuroimaging & Law: The MGH Center for Law, Brain & Behavior, along with the Petrie-Flom Center at Harvard Law School, also hosted a series of pain neuroimaging and law posts:
