A new Pew Research Center survey (Tyson 2024) conducted a few weeks ago provides information about “Public Trust in Scientists and Views on Their Role in Policymaking.”

Partisan differences, the need for scientists to communicate more clearly, and mixed views about scientists’ proper role in public policy debates emerge as key findings.
