Join the National Association of Scholars for "Shifting Sands: False Positives" on Tuesday, August 19, at 2 pm ET.

The National Association of Scholars’s (NAS) project Shifting Sands: Unsound Science and Unsafe Regulation ([link removed]) examines how irreproducible science negatively affects select areas of government policy and regulation.

False Positives: The Irresponsibility Crisis of Science Policy, the fifth policy paper in the Shifting Sands project, aims to summarize the substance of the previous Shifting Sands reports—the nature of the irreproducibility crisis, the procedures we used to evaluate scientific research that informs government policy, the histories of the disciplines and agencies we have investigated, and the results of our investigations. The Shifting Sands reports present these results at far greater level of detail. Here we provide a digest of their substance to explain and to justify this report’s conclusions and recommendations.

This report provides a policy-oriented conclusion to our Shifting Sands reports by outlining recommendations for how to address the irresponsibility crisis of science policy.

This event will feature Marlo Lewis, a Senior Fellow in Energy & Environmental Policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute; Richard Williams, retiree of the FDA and Board Chair of the Center for Truth in Science; Stan Young, the CEO of CGStat and Director of the Shifting Sands project; and Warren Kindzierski, Adjunct Professor of Environmental Health at the University of Alberta School of Public Health, and co-author of all four Shifting Sands projects.

This event will be moderated by David Randall, NAS Director of Research and co-author of the Shifting Sands reports.
