The Irony: Science Research/Education Leaders Do Not Use Science-Based Thinking

"We speak with cosmologist and science communicator Dr. Paul Sutter about his upcoming book, Rescuing Science. Dr. Sutter thinks (Capital S) Science has made some significant errors, and that people do not trust science because of the very system it has created for itself.

Alternatives To Medicine In Academia

"During the past 20 years, integrative medicine centers that promote the use of alternative therapies were established in more than 70 medical and nursing schools.

Using Climate Change As A Scientific Model To Educate Science Deniers

"Cox does an excellent job emphasizing the model building nature of science. I think “scientific model” is the best term to use when discussing the nature of science (and here are three scientific words everyone should stop using).
