Title: Interdisciplinary Postdoctoral Fellowship in Behavioral and Forensic SciencesAbstractThis project will support an interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellow who will conduct research under the mentorship of senior scholars in the fields of behavior sciences and forensic sciences at Arizona State University. The past decade has seen the beginning of a major transformation in the field of forensic science. This postdoctoral fellow's research program will advance scientific understanding at the nexus of the behavioral sciences and forensic sciences, with a goal to improve how forensic science is developed, conducted, and communicated. This project will support a postdoctoral scholar who will be engaged in a number of research areas at Arizona State University?s Forensic Science Initiative Program and Law and Behavioral Science Program for two years. The research will involve developing ways to test the validity and reliability of forensic techniques, investigating the human side of forensic judgment, and helping non-scientists such as jurors, lawyers, and judges understand and evaluate the quality of forensic science by improving how it is communicated. The postdoctoral fellow will receive consistent and ongoing mentorship from a team of scholars with established research records in the area of the fellow?s work. The goal of this interdisciplinary postdoctoral fellowship is to facilitate the growth of a scholar working in a critically-understudied area at the intersection of the behavioral and forensic sciences, in order to advance scientific understandings of convergence of these important areas of study.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

标题：行为和法医学跨学科博士后奖学金摘要该项目将支持一名跨学科博士后研究员，他将在亚利桑那州立大学行为科学和法医学领域的资深学者的指导下进行研究。过去十年见证了法医学领域重大变革的开始。该博士后研究员的研究项目将增进对行为科学和法医学之间关系的科学理解，目标是改善法医学的开发、开展和交流方式。该项目将支持一名博士后学者，该学者将在亚利桑那州立大学的法证科学计划以及法律和行为科学计划的多个研究领域从事两年的工作。该研究将涉及开发测试法医技术有效性和可靠性的方法，调查法医判断的人性化一面，并通过改进法医科学的传播方式，帮助陪审员、律师和法官等非科学家理解和评估法医科学的质量。博士后研究员将获得在其工作领域拥有丰富研究记录的学者团队的持续和持续指导。这项跨学科博士后奖学金的目标是促进在行为科学和法医学交叉领域的严格研究领域工作的学者的成长，以促进对这些重要研究领域的融合的科学理解。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查进行评估，被认为值得支持 标准。
