Integrity of Science
The integrity of science is a conference about the conflict between public policy and independent science, in honour of Dr. Árpád, at The Royal Society Of Edinburgh on 26th & 27th May.
About Integrity of Science
Independent scientific research for the benefit of people and the planet is suppressed on a larger scale and in more ways than most people are aware of.
Commercial interests as well as governments and regulatory agencies generally determine what we read and hear about in the media as scientific findings.
Behind the scenes, however, much excellent research is being kept away from public attention by a multitude of means, including (but not limited to) intimidation and harassment of scientists.
As a result, there is a growing gulf between public policy and independent science.
The integrity of science is at stake. The conference addresses this alarming subject by highlighting one case and analysing many others.
