Dan Simon, a 2022-23 CASBS fellow and USC law professor, joins in conversation with Elizabeth Loftus, a 1978-79 CASBS fellow and Distinguished Professor at UC Irvine. Loftus is known in the public sphere through her decades-long study of memory – specifically, its malleability and fallibility – as well as her application of findings as an expert witness or consultant in hundreds of legal cases. Loftus's book "Eyewitness Testimony," completed at the Center, charted the course of her career that followed and serves as this episode's launching point.ELIZABETH LOFTUSUC Irvine faculty pageWikipedia pageTED Talk (2013), "How reliable is your memory?"Nobel Prize Summit (2023), "The misinformation effect"The New Yorker (2021), "How Elizabeth Loftus Changed the Meaning of Memory" DAN SIMONUSC Gould School of Law faculty pageCASBS bio"In Doubt: The Psychology of the Criminal Justice Process" (Harvard Univ.
