Congratulations @Awakenwfu for publishing "Not Sick Enough" - a powerful call to advocacy for those who were "denied the help they deserved." Definitely worth the read. As always, proud of our @wfulaw students! awakenwfu.com/2025/10/24/not…

With NIH funding cuts, Prof. Nancy King and I argue that "there's more being threatened than just progress in science and medicine. Something valuable but often overlooked is also being hit hard: preventing research abuse." @WakeForest @WFULawSchool

Excited to share the 4th edition of A Lawyer Writes. My wonderful @wfulawschool colleagues have dubbed this the "Global Edition." Inspired by "Flat Stanley," the book (& colleague) enjoyed many adventures across the pond. @lclarklaw @LRW_OregonLaw cap-press.com

Declarations & terminations of #publichealth emergencies shift the balance of governmental power & have the capacity to change our #world. Clear guidance for performative utterances is urgently needed.

Always energizing to collaborate w/@WakeForest @wakeforestmed's Prof. Nancy King. In "Dobbs, the Intrusive State, and the Future of Solidarity," we acknowledge the need for "collective action to protect reproductive health, preclude divisiveness, and preserve democracy."

"The intrusive state has long viewed women as fetal containers. The Dobbs decision goes further." Read "Dobbs, the Intrusive State, and the Future of Solidarity" by @ProfCoughlin and Prof. Nancy M.P. King, published by @CUP_med_health. bit.ly/3ZWORTw #dobbs #roevwade

Really proud of the important research being conducted through @WFULawSchool Accountable Prosecutor Project. Excellent work led by Project Director @Eileen_Prescott!

In most states, prosecutors are protected by “absolute immunity." But there are exceptions. Wake Forest Law's Accountable Prosecutor Project, an arm of the Foundation for Prosecutorial Accountability, has published a major report on absolute immunity law. bit.ly/3Fulv6z
