This is Scientific American's 60-Second Science. I’m Steve Mirsky. Got a minute?
On February 14th, the Union of Concerned Scientists issued a call for the protection of federal scientists. The UCS press conference took place in space made available by the American Association for the Advancement 1 of Science, whose annual meeting is taking place in Boston. Francesca Grifo is the director of the UCS’s scientific integrity program: “As we transition to the next administration, regardless of who we vote to place at its helm, we must ensure that the falsifying of data; the fabricating of results; the selective editing; the intimidation 2, censoring 3 and suppression of scientists; the corruption 4 of advisory 5 panels; and the tampering 6 with scientific procedures all stop.”
To that end, the UCS wants Congress to pass a scientists’ bill of rights. Kurt Gottfriend is professor of physics emeritus 7 at Cornell University and a cofounder of the UCS: “We therefore call on the next president and Congress to codify 8 the basic freedoms that federal scientists must have if they are to produce the scientific knowledge that is needed by a government dedicated 9 to the public good.”
