Professor Dickinson is an Assistant Professor of Law University of Nebraska College of Law, where he teaches Contracts, Business Torts and Unfair Competition, The Common Law, and Remedies. He is also a nonresident fellow with the Stanford Law School Program in Law, Science and Technology and holds a JD from Harvard Law School. Before teaching, Professor Dickinson practiced at Ropes & Gray LLP in Boston and at law firms in Rochester, New York, with a year in between as a law clerk for Judge Richard C. Wesley of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
Professor Dickinson's research focuses on the interaction between private law and technology. One major area of interest is how the common law responds to technological innovation and can be harnessed to complement the more particular statutory and regulatory schemes layered atop it. A second branch of his work explores how the tools of machine learning and artificial intelligence can be brought to bear on traditional legal questions. Through computational analysis of large bodies of case law his research seeks to provide a more systematic view of our legal system and doctrines and to guide legal reforms and policy decisions. His work appears in leading journals including the Boston College Law Review, the Stanford Technology Law Review, the Harvard Journal on Legislation, and the Administrative Law Review.
