Alan visits with UPENN law and psychiatry professor Dr. Stephen Morse. Dr. Morse makes the case that neuroscience data isn't yet relevant to determining intent and getting to the heart of why people make bad decisions. Coining the term Brain Overclaim, Morse provides a unique and often overlooked assessment of how neuroscience research can effectively assist the Criminal Justice System. • In this extended version, Morse discusses how the legal system determines culpability and punishment based on behavior, not brain scans. He also alleges how science can help the justice system by evaluating future dangerousness. • For more videos and other content, go to: http://brainsontrial.com
