Diana Urian (MSc candidate, 91精品黑料吃瓜), Kellie Weisse (2L, 91精品黑料吃瓜), and Shreya Nair (2024-2025 Visiting Fulbright Student Program, 91精品黑料吃瓜) travelled to Munich, Germany with Professor Jennifer A. Chandler (Canada Research Chair in the Law and Ethics of Brain Technologies) to present the work they have done with Professor Chandler鈥檚 Neuro-Law-Lab, a research group dedicated to exploring issues at the intersection of law and brain sciences.
Diana presented analysis of a case in which medical assistance in dying took place midway through a course of treatment using deep brain stimulation, raising the question of how the criterion of irremediability should apply in such cases where the full course of treatment was not completed.
Shreya and Kellie presented the results of a comprehensive review of the use of EEG-based 鈥渂rain mapping鈥 technologies within the criminal justice system of India, noting the ways in which this technology was taken up prior the ground-breaking Supreme Court of India case of Selvi in 2010, and how it has been used since then.Their poster received one of the 鈥渂est poster鈥 prizes as part of the 鈥檚 poster presentation competition.
