Professors Rebecca Wexler and Andrea Roth will take center stage May 12 in a Brookings Institute webcast on forensic algorithms, their growing use in the U.S. legal system, and concerns they raise around accuracy, transparency, due process, and accountability. Wexler will lead a fireside chat with Rep. Mark Takano (D-Calif.), and she and Roth are among the four experts on the ensuing panel discussion.
