Exciting news! The Massachusetts Supreme Court, citing multiple publications that our lab contributed to, has banned mandatory life without parole for 18 to 20-year-olds. Evidence shows emerging adults share traits with younger individuals, impacting impulse control, risk-taking, peer influence, and brain plasticity. This decision aligns the justice system with CABLAB’s work on biological and behavioral maturation. Check out the court’s full decision here and a quick news summary here. A game-changer in justice informed by CABLAB’s pioneering research.
