Just co-organized the 21st #DGPs #LegalPsych Conference with my supervisor Friederike Funk at #LMU — three packed days of research discussions & networking. Also presented my own work on how experts and laypeople assess legal errors. Feeling grateful, inspired, and… ready to get back to research!

If you’re going to the American Psychological Association Convention next week, let me know! The APA President gave me two minutes during the presidential opening session to discuss the #LegalPsych perspective.

Small time period, but large audience. I hope to spark some conversations!

It’s #legalpsych because of the likely child bystander emotional damage!

Witnesses have a harder time identifying armed vs unarmed people because they focus their attention on the weapon, right?

Maybe not. New #legalpsych research questions longstanding research on the weapon focus effect.

Am I the best artist? Nope. But art is a good stress relief and I wanted something for my office.

Called “Predator” bc it’s a shark but also bc it’s painted on whitewashed pages from a law review article I wrote on the ethics of sexually violent predator laws.

I’m definitely a #LegalPsych nerd.
