Science For Sale: How the U.S. Government Controls Science to Support its Policies - David Lewis

What really lies behind mounting public concerns over vaccines, GMOs and other scientific advances, and the growing popularity of unregulated dietary supplements and non-traditional medicine? Is the public simply misinformed as many in the scientific community contend; or is science produced by federal agencies, big corporations, and academic institutions working together to further their own interests losing credibility? And what lies ahead as the courts are called upon to enforce government mandates based on a body of science that increasingly larger portions of the population no longer consider valid or in the public interest? This presentation is an insider’s view of scientific integrity in a state of crisis, and the conflict it’s creating between the scientific establishment and growing segments within the general population.
