Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Data: Truths and Myths about Citizen Science as a Knowledge Democracy
Scientists prepare for years to become credentialed experts at science, a process of reliably creating new knowledge. How then can people without formal scientific training take part in making verified knowledge claims? Dr. Cooper will lead a journey into citizen science, and its successes and failures. This event will challenge us to think differently about the structure of the scientific enterprise, about who is served, who is underserved, and why the participatory sciences are part of helping humanity meet grand challenges.
