(NEWS) Hebrew University Professor Wins Stockholm Prize

"Prof. David Weisburd of Israel's Hebrew University of Jerusalem was awarded the 2010 Stockholm Prize in Criminology on June 15. This is the first time in the prize's history that it has been awarded to just one recipient.

Weisburd received the prize in recognition of a series of experiments he conducted showing that intensified police patrol at high crime ''hot spots'' yields far less total crime than conventional patrol patterns do."
