We are excited to share a new episode of Lobes and Robes, featuring Dr. Teneille Brown, Professor of Law at the S.J. Quinney College of Law at the University of Utah, where she also serves as the Associate Dean for Research and Director of the Center for Law and Biomedical Sciences. She also teaches at the university’s Center for Health, Ethics, Arts, and Humanities. Professor Brown’s research is highly interdisciplinary, engaging with questions at the intersection of law, genetics, neuroscience, social psychology, philosophy, medicine, and ethics.

In this conversation, we discuss how jurors interpret foreseeability, group-level evidence vs. individual-level evidence, using brain imaging in the criminal context, brain death, what it means to be legally alive or dead in different states and countries, and whether it is possible to separate actions from mental states.
