Hamid Ghanadan, CEO at LINUS, reports on their recent State of Science research that tracks scientists' sentiment, funding expectations, and barriers to their work. Key findings reveal that the politicization of science and erosion of public trust in science threaten to slow innovation rates and negatively impact public access to accurate information. The survey also shows a direct negative impact on scientists' morale, job satisfaction, and creativity.

We talk about:

• The growing perception of the public that science is not real
• Sources of public distrust of scientific information
• When scientists become politically active
• Need for more direct communication from the scientists and life science leaders to make complex topics more understandable and relevant
• Opportunity for researchers, institutions, vendors, and advocacy groups to recognize these issues and take responsibility to improve the communication of accurate health and medical information to a broader audience
