Wonderful to be able to host an #egenis workshop on “community engagement as scientific practice”, inspired by the brilliant Ayelet Shavit and her group, with amazing colleagues @ankeny_rachel & Helen Longino - prep for a special issue that should be finalised by 2024..

This paper by Julian Reiss is an absorbing read, crystal clear & timely, no matter what your views on social science experts in society are. I agree that advanced technical does not (sadly) correlate with superior political judgement! Or that elusive philosophical goal: wisdom..

This will be seminal/ widely read: “I reject any attempt, on the part of scientists themselves or of philosophers or any other students of science, to strengthen the role of experts in society. Experts need to be kept in check, not given more power.” Reiss
