Rebuilding Trust in Science: A Morton L. Mandel Conversation
Public trust in science is declining in the United States; contributing factors include misinformation, polarization, politicization, and algorithmically-generated news. Only by gaining a better understanding of the causes of the divisions and how to address them can we rebuild trust and repair societal fractures.
How can scientists, scholars, journalists, institutional leaders, and others who shape public opinion and trust engage with a divided public in constructive ways?
Join us for a discussion on the importance of science communication and strategies to bridge the gap between science and the public.
