The Prosecuting Attorneys Association of Michigan will present the Traffic Safety Training Program webinar “Mellanby Effect, Retrograde Extrapolation, and Homeostasis” on Wednesday, April 19, from noon to 1 p.m. via Zoom.
Alcohol intoxication has distinct and different effects in the absorption and elimination phases. This presentation will explore how this difference was discovered, how it has since been quantified, and what this means for stakeholders in traffic safety. It will touch on retrograde extrapolation and what it can and cannot tell us in impaired driving investigations.
The webinar will also relate the Mellanby Effect to homeostasis and discuss ways to relate the information to finders of fact in meaningful ways.
This webinar will be presented by Tom Heller, detective with the Seattle Police Department.
This online course is approved for 1 hour of credit under PAAM’s recommended CLE Best Practice.
The training handouts, if any, will be made available the day of each webinar.
