In their new Forefront article, Nicole Huberfeld of Boston University School of Public Health and the contributing authors in the thread discuss, how when states restrict abortion, the penalties jeopardize not just reproductive care but also other kinds of care, including cancer care. bit.ly/3ISW14j

This pairs nicely with my forthcoming article with Michael Pollack in the UChicago Law Review, about a wholly different aspect of Fourth Amendment law and theory. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cf…

Congrats again to Teneille Brown and Emily Murphy, whose amicus brief was discussed extensively (and approvingly!) by SCOTUS during oral arguments this morning

Evidence profs were the talk of the town at the U.S. Supreme Court oral argument this morning in Diaz v. United States, where several justices asked about points raised in the brilliant amicus brief helmed by Teneille Brown and Emily Murphy

Thanks to Alex Nunn and Ed Cheng for letting Emily Murphy and I geek out about the evidence rules and how experts regularly use group data to help jurors decide what defendants might have thought (and thanks also for signing the amicus brief!)

Kira Peikoff & I wrote (she did most of the work) this piece on the Ala Sup Ct decision's possible implications for future technologies, esp in vitro gametogenesis! (Kira, a science journalist, has a novel on IVG coming out-a good thriller! Watch for it!

I implore the medical, scientific, & public health communities to help safeguard against 'indiscriminate acceptance of unsubstantiated, disingenuous claims of medical uncertainty by demonstrating that these restrictions are flawed medically and ethically—and as a result, legally'
