Law Student Seeks Collaborators

Esfand Nafisi recently wrote to me with the following message:

Hi. My name is Esfand Nafisi. I am a 2nd year law student at Northwestern University with a B.S. in psychology. Since watching Professor Stich's series on moral theory and cognition, I have developed a great interest in experimental philosophy, especially as it relates to law.

I plan on spending the bulk of the next year and a half focusing on the role experimental philosophy might play in resolving difficult legal questions concerning things like culpability, intent, etc. Before I begin in earnest, I thought it might be useful to see if there are any experimental philosophers out there who have any thoughts on the topic they'd like to share. I'm looking for ideas, collaborators, instruction, whatever.

I think this project has enormous potential, and I would encourage experimental philosophers either to put up suggestions in the comments section here or to write to Esfand directly at esfand.nafisi at gmail.com.
