Lum to deliver the Jerry Lee Lecture at Stockholm on June 10

Distinguished University Professor Cynthia Lum of George Mason University and Director of its Center for Evidence-Based Crime Policy will deliver the 2026 Jerry Lee Lecture at the Stockholm Criminology Symposium on June 10, where the Stockholm Prize will be awarded. Lum will be discussing the “special sauce” behind institutionalizing evidence-based practices in policing, as revealed by research and experiments in the field. She will argue that, for criminologists to continue advancing evidence-based reforms, fieldwork – and its funding – remain essential. View the full program of the symposium and prize ceremony here.
