About this event

Join this webinar for a conversation between National Crime Agency’s forensic clinical psychologist Dr Adrian West and the Chief Scientific Adviser for policing, Prof Paul Taylor.

They will investigate questions such as:

  • What does providing scientific advice into policing look like?
  • What are the differences between academic science advice vs clinical practitioner perspectives?
  • How can these insights be operationalised in policy and how should serious policy makers consider such evidence?
  • What is the relationship between law and order and public health?

This will be followed by an audience Q&A.
