About the research group
The research group emphasizes the integration of various academic perspectives into legal science, including philosophy, psychology, psychiatry, neuroscience, social sciences, and history. Through the different research projects affiliated with the group, key areas of expertise include criminal responsibility, law and mental health, and children and criminal justice.
The group aims to advance legal scholarship by incorporating diverse research methodologies.
