Registration is open for the Society’s 2015 Research Forum, to be held October 22-24, 2015, at cosponsoring organization American University Washington College of Law. The weekend will begin with two events geared towards law students: an international law career panel and speed mentoring event on Thursday night, and a panel on international law research strategies on Friday morning. The Forum will then officially kick off mid-day Friday with a lunch panel discussion featuring former International Court of Justice judge Thomas Buergenthal. Friday afternoon and Saturday will consist of expert-led discussion of nearly 70 papers on a variety of cutting-edge topics in international law, including a special lunch panel on “Investor Dispute Settlement and the Rule of Law.”
Tickets are still available for Friday’s separately ticketed keynote dinner, featuring Newell Highsmith (deputy legal adviser, U.S. Department of State) and Kimberly Gahan (attorney adviser, U.S. Department of State), both of whom have been instrumental in the ongoing negotiations with Iran. They will discuss “Dispute Settlement with Iran: From the Hostage Crisis to the Nuclear Accord.”
