Areas of expertise: human night vision neuropsychopharmacology the effect of stress and other factors on the human mind. Dr. Fraser has a Ph.D. in Psychology from New York University He has testified in criminal and civil cases throughout the U.S. in state and federal courts.

Eyewitnesses Questions to ponder Do you think that if you were standing next to someone who was shot by a car driving by you could accurately identify the shooter in the car? As a juror what kinds of evidence would it take you to be certain that some is guilty beyond a “reasonable doubt?” Generally, the prosecutor bears the burden of proof and is required to prove their version of events to this standard. This means that the proposition being presented by the prosecution must be proven to the extent that there could be no "reasonable doubt" in the mind of a "reasonable person" that the defendant is guilty

Eyewitnesses Scott Fraser’s TED.com talk Why eyewitnesses get it wrong

Memory Questions to ponder Do you think someone could convince you that when you were five you were attacked by a animal lost in a mall for an hour or so ritualistically abused by devil worshippers Do you think someone could influence you as a child to like certain vegetables more than you actually do? How confident are you that everything that happened to you as a child, actually happened? Why

Memory Elizabeth Loftus’s TED.com talk How reliable is your memory?
