19/ The integrity of our public health system is being challenged. When unverified, inaccurate, and fabricated data is allowed to influence policy, it undermines the public’s trust in science—and that’s a crisis we can’t afford.

8/ These issues aren’t small errors—they call into question the integrity of the report as a whole. Why rely on fabricated studies? And how is it that high-ranking officials are pushing this as science? 🤷♂️

Camilla Stoltenberg, CEO of the Norwegian Research Centre (NORCE), recounts her experience of pandemics (incl. SARS and COVID) and the importance of ensuring independence, transparency, and accuracy of public health information. There needs to be room for open disagreement to build trust, especially in uncertain times. Scientific advisors should be allowed to state their opinions.

New study: "[We] tested five theoretically grounded intervention strategies to improve #conservatives’ #trust in scientists. None of the interventions were successful, suggesting that trust in scientists reflects relatively stable attitudes that require more elaborate and time-intensive interventions."

Also see this summary. US conservatives "distrust science more broadly than previously thought. Not only do they distrust science that does not correspond to their worldview, but also, compared to liberal Americans, their trust is also lower in fields that contribute to economic growth and productivity."

10/ Moreover, trust in science among Republican leaders has continued to decline. This is seen in their increasing political interference with scientific institutions, making the environment even more hostile for researchers dedicated to public health and progress. #TrustInScience

Guidelines on lab-grown embryo models are strong enough to meet ethical standards — and will build trust in science
The UK code of practice for researchers working with stem-cell-based embryo models is designed to both reassure the public and provide valuable guidance to researchers.

The #scientificsystem has all the necessary #conceptual and #argumentative tools to interact
with multiple #audiences (...). However, the public cannot be thought of either as an object or as an abstraction, but need to be considered in its intrinsic multiplicity. This should enable not to regain the “old trust”, purely based on #authority but a
renewed one, made of constructive and critical participation, understanding and recognition

"The public sees the results of scientific research, including all the fraudulent stuff, including all the lazy stuff, including all the poorly done stuff. And so when they see contradictory result after contradictory result, I don’t blame the public for losing trust in science, because we have not worked to build our own trustability, because we are not policing fraud enough."
