Doubting science and technology?

Description:

An interdisciplinary panel composed of Michigan State University faculty members participates in a discussion entitled, "Doubting science and technology?" Panelists describe their individual research and explore the general public's understanding of the scientific method and the popular distrust of scientific information. They also discuss how incomplete knowledge and misinformation shapes public policy and how technological advancement may be both a blessing and a curse. Panelists are: Georgina Montgomery, Lyman Briggs College, Kevin Elliott, Lyman Briggs College, Rick Wash, Department of Media and Information, and Aaron McCright, Department of Sociology. Lee June, former MSU vice president for student affairs and a current faculty member in the Honors College, convenes the session and moderates questions from the audience with the help of John Beck, professor of Human Resources and Labor Relations.
