We will be holding a one day cultural event on Saturday 29 November 2014 with leading experts within the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences.
Drawing upon a range of historical, legal and social scientific perspectives, during this study day we will discuss some of the realities surrounding expert evidence, addressing what forms of knowledge and practice are actually admissible in the courts, the ways experts resolve (or attempt to resolve) expert disagreement and the ways that the law, science and medicine intersect in the form of the expert witness.
It is our intention that attendees will have a renewed, but more informed, interest in the important role of expert evidence following this event.
Staff and student discount available. Buffet lunch included. Please see the University website for full programme and booking.
