    New $10 Million MacArthur Project Integrates Law and Neuroscience

    Quoted:New York, October 9, 2007 – The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation is bringing together a distinguished group of scientists, legal scholars, jurists, and philosophers from across the country to help integrate new developments in neuroscience into the U.S. legal system. The Law and Neuroscience Project is the first systematic effort to bridge the fields of law and science in considering how courts should deal with new brain-scanning techniques as they apply to matters of law.

      If neuroscience proves there's no such thing as "personal responsibility", is that a reason for the law to reject its science?
