SUMMARY:Cafe Scientifique: Is there a war on science in the United States?
DESCRIPTION:Science is the most powerful tool for gaining knowledge of the physical world. We’re more dependent on science and technology than any other time in human history. And yet\, in the U.S.\, there is currently a wide range of public relations campaigns against science. \nJohn Radzilowicz\, director of Science & Education at Carnegie Science Center\, will examine how science is done\, how it’s communicated\, how it’s used — or misused — and undervalued in society today. \nRadzilowicz will explore the true nature of the scientific enterprise as well as provide answers to the following questions: \n\nWhat does it get us?\nHow is science communicated and applied in the public square?\nHow and why does the process go wrong?\nWhat are the consequences of the distortion of science?\nWhat can we do about it?\n\nRegister by May 31.  \nDate & time:6-9 p.m.\, Monday\, June 4\, 2012 \nLocation:Carnegie Science CenterOne Allegheny AvenuePittsburgh\, PA  15212412-237-3400
