When I planned this, I feared it would get worse. I didn’t expect it to go this fast.

I don’t know how yet, but I do know that we need to band together to protect science; to support our colleagues who are losing funding and whose work is being washed (away).

Stay tuned.
📢 “Science Under Fire” #ica25 panel features scholars studying media bans, politics, misinformation, climate research, activism, & journalism. We will discuss how our science is being attacked and what we can do.

Thx to @thanitzsch.bsky.social @claesdevreese.bsky.social for support and inspo.
