🔍 New research from our faculty fellow @Isa_Freiling calls for evidence-based strategies to make science communication more effective in an info ecosystem where science content competes with posts from conspiracy theorists & other unverified sources:
attheu.utah.edu
Science organizations are ill-prepared to leverage current media landscapes most effectively to communicate with the public partly due to social media platforms preventing meaningful research.

Air quality research often requires AI tools to process massive amounts of data. "While bias in AI algorithms is well-known, the study exemplifies another ethical issue for big-data users—the chance that the datasets themselves are inherently biased."
attheu.utah.edu
U.S. EPA air quality monitors are disproportionally located in predominately white neighborhoods, leaving marginalized communities at risk of pollution exposure.
