Jessie Smith

I am a PhD candidate in Law at the University of Cambridge, supported by a Gonville & Caius W.M Tapp Scholarship and a John Monash Scholarship.

My doctoral studies concern comparative counter-terrorism law, with a focus on the judicial assessment of terrorist risk.

Alongside my core research programme, I am Managing Editor of the Cambridge International Law Journal. I have broad interests in the relationship between international law and domestic counter-terrorism instruments.

Prior to commencing my PhD, I maintained joint conduct of the largest terrorism and national security law practice in Australia.
