Description
Professor Bandes is distinguished Centennial Professor of Law Emeritus at DePaul University College of Law, Chicago. She is a scholar in the areas of federal jurisdiction, criminal procedure and civil rights, and one of the foremost international scholars in the field of Law and Emotion (Professor Bandes is often credited with pioneering the field).
During her visit to Belfast, Professor Bandes recorded a law and emotion podcast for the Law School website; delivered an interactive faculty seminar; and delivered a public lecture (attracting significant numbers from the legal profession). I also arranged for Professor Bandes to deliver a talk to the NI Judicial Studies Board; this was held in the Royal Courts of Justice, on 3rd October and was attended by the Lord Chief Justice and other senior members of the judiciary.
