I was lucky to be in the audience for this, and agree with these sentiments. However, so much of the battle is access. How can we help Americans navigate public information. Sure, it's not secret, but it doesn't always feel accessible. #savescience #sciencematters #science #biomedicalresearch

Glad to know that Americans are slowly regaining their trust in science, but we have a long way to go! Many don't think scientists should be involved in policy making! www.pewresearch.org/science/2024...

Americans’ trust in scientists is slightly higher than it was last year, but remains lower than before the COVID-19 pandemic.
