Judicial officers, barristers, legal practitioners, leading academics and researchers from across the country came together in Adelaide in August and covered neurobiological foundations of memory, trauma and memory phenomena, memory malleability and suggestibility, investigative interviewing, and how courts should properly engage with memory science in judicial decision-making.
The NJCA thanks the NJCA Symposium Committee and keynote speaker Professor Barbara Spellman, Professor of Law and Professor of Psychology, from the University of Virginia, for making the journey “down under” along with the other academics from across the country that kindly joined us for this important national symposium.
