FAKE NEWS in the World of Science

You know what they say... If it's on the internet, then it must be true! Well, sorry to bee a buzzzzzz kill, but, there’s A LOT of fake news in the world. The spread of false information has become a serious challenge to evidence-based decision-making and science communication. So, how can one attempt to cut through the noise and separate fact from fiction?

Join the Amys and their brilliant guest, Dr. Erica Feuerbacher – professor, researcher, and applied animal behavior extraordinaire – for a closer look at what makes research valuable and valid. We discuss how to critically read research papers, what to consider when confronted with claims, and how to evaluate sources for signs of credibility. Ditch the rose-colored glasses and grab a cocktail as we get down to business exposing the dirty underbelly of research publication.
