Trust in Science; the Science in Trust
La confiance dans la science; la science dans la confiance

Panel Organized by: Genome Canada in collaboration with Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council and Canadian Foundation for Innovation.

Society has benefited from innovations in systems, processes and technologies that are largely due to scientific advancement. Given the scope and scale of addressing global challenges, it is critical that the public trusts science and the application of science across all disciplines. How do we gain public trust when it comes to addressing global challenges? How do we foster greater public engagement in research, notably with diverse and inclusive communities, and better integrate multidisciplinary science into policymaking to improve the way we communicate and teach science. What are innovative ways to strengthen the trust between science and society?
