Check out our April update to learn about our new guide to the scientific integrity policies of United States universities, state agencies, and international research institutions; how the Trump administration's war on science has weakened researchers’ ability to respond to COVID-19; and more.

COVID-19 illuminates the crucial role scientists at university, state, and local laboratories in the United States and abroad play in protecting public health and safety. With this in mind, today we published a free resource for scientists that describes how these institutions generally structure their scientific integrity policies, what the policies cover, and the processes for enforcing them.

Dr. George Luber alleges that CDC officials prohibited him from communicating with the press about his work, and prohibited him from participating in a conference on climate change and health.

We published the second edition of “Research Protections in Open Records Laws: An Analysis and Ranking,” join us and the ACLU for a workshop at the AGU Fall Meeting, and more.

One of the most pernicious, ongoing anti-science actions is the abuse of state open records laws to target state university researchers and other publicly-funded scientists.
