Dr London is the Department of Psychology, Professor & Department Chair at the University of Toledo.

Including “Narrative Practice” and “Hypothesis Testing” rather than a “Hypothesis Confirming” approach.Written and Produced by N Leigh HuntTheme music by Bart Mendoza and Manual ScanAdditional info graciously provided by Georgetown University's Making An Exoneree Program and Investigator Kimberly Hunter Hosted on Acast.
