State Bar adds more sessions for 'Neuroscience of Decision-Making' training

After an overwhelmingly positive response from members, the State Bar of Michigan is pleased to offer another three-part series of virtual training sessions with Kimberly Papillon, an internationally renowned judicial professor and lecturer on neuroscience and fair decision-making in law, medicine, education, and business.

In her webinar, "The Neuroscience of Decision-Making," Papillon explores how brain imaging and decision-making studies can explain how we determine intelligence, veracity, threat, and competence.

With this understanding, participants can work to identify ways to ensure sound decision-making and fairness guided by science.

This is a three-part series that covers the topic of unconscious decision-making from scientific background and concept (Parts One and Two) through solutions (Part Three). Registrants should plan to attend all three sessions.

  - Part One: Thursday, February 25 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

  - Part Two: Thursday, March 4 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

  - Part Three: Thursday, March 11 from 1 p.m. to 3 p.m.

This webinar is offered free of charge to members and affiliates of the State Bar of Michigan.
