Heather Lanthorn's research takes a deep dive into health mis- and disinformation

When Heather Lanthorn assumed the role of program director of the new Mercury Project at the Social Science Research Council in December 2021, she was ecstatic.

From the Dean: Let's Talk Science

Dean F. DuBois Bowman

For others, science’s fluidity provides an access point for criticism. How do we communicate that change is part of the scientific process and lead wherever change is needed?
