Professor Gilbert’s research and expertise includes criminal law and considers best practices in codes of conduct that focus on sexual violence, with a particular emphasis on sexual violence and abuse in all levels of sport in Canada.

"This has been a shockingly long process. While it is not unusual for an accused to be given time to turn themselves in (and I recognize that in this case time has to be given to get to London), the gentleness with which they are being treated is alarming."
