Current Research

Charlotte's PhD is investigating the discriminatory operation of English and Welsh criminal law from an interdisciplinary theoretical perspective, taking a particular lens to philosophical foundations of criminal law and theories of criminalisation, and is supervised by Professor Paul Roberts and Dr Matt Thomason.

Their further research interests lie in criminal jurisprudence intersecting LGBT+ issues. Their LLM dissertation critically addressed the current normative conception of gender identity as deception vitiating sexual consent, interrogating case law surrounding the issue and proposing novel reform. They are also a member of the CJRC.
