Our mission.

The Center for Unbiased Science & Health (Formerly Science Literacy Lab) is dedicated to reaching a diverse audience seeking clarity and reliable information on health and science. This is particularly challenging for:

Hard-to-reach populations

Those with limited access to credible information or with language and cultural barriers may struggle to make informed choices.

Those with information gaps

Individuals lacking a strong science background might find scientific concepts difficult to grasp, leaving them vulnerable to misunderstandings.

People skeptical of science

Disinformation campaigns erode trust in science, making it difficult to separate legitimate sources from misleading claims.

Consequences of Science Illiteracy

This lack of science literacy can have significant consequences:

Poor health decisions

Misunderstanding health information can lead to harmful choices about diet, treatments, or risk avoidance.

Vulnerability to pseudoscience

Individuals may fall prey to false cures, fraudulent products, or conspiracy theories that lack scientific basis.

Challenges to public health

Misconceptions can undermine vaccination efforts, hinder disease control measures, and erode support for evidence-based policymaking.
