"Glyphosate has been rigorously tested in more than 2,000 studies, including the U.S. National Cancer Institute’s large Agricultural Health Study, and has been used by farmers and home gardeners for more than 50 years." realclearscience.com/article…

President Trump warned pregnant women that using acetaminophen will cause their children to develop autism. A new BMJ letter and a recent systematic review (supported by the Center for Truth in Science) show Trump was relying upon Fool's Gold Standard science.

A rigorous review refutes Trump's claim: bmj.com/content/391/bmj-2025…
For causal factors, probability of causation can help estimate the quantitative impacts on health risks of reducing exposures, even where there is incomplete mechanistic evidence and uncertain knowledge of individual-level exposure-response.

At a time when public trust in science has plummeted—with a majority of STEM researchers acknowledging a reproducibility crisis—the recent EO addresses critical needs at the intersection of science, justice, and the economy.

We’ve spent years documenting how the intersection of flawed #science and the judicial system creates economic havoc.
The recent EO could be a step toward improving how science is done—but only with rigorous implementation and commitment to principles: truthinscience.org/statement…
Last week, we were honored to join @StatePolicy to advance conversations at the intersection of #science, #publicpolicy, and #truth.
Our very own @DataSciBurgoon served on a panel hosted by @AmeriBev, discussing scientific #misinformation re: food and beverage products.

We need more critical thinking. At the @truthsciencectr (Center for Truth in Science) we are mission driven to raise the scientific, data, and statistical literacy of judges, attorneys, and the public so we can prevent pseudoscience from driving decisions in the courtroom, at government agencies, our Legislatures and Congress. If you're with us, please consider a donation or major gift today!
Our mission is simple: to seek integrity in the pursuit of scientific knowledge: truthinscience.org/
Heard of interventional probability of causation #research methods? 🧠
This approach differentiates between likely/unlikely causal factors and can provide upper bounds for some exposures and diseases. What this means for our work at the intersection: tinyurl.com/ys4x2rnk
With salutary reform of expert witness testimony, the days of “easy admissibility” for dodgy testimony should be in the dustbin of legal history. The situation in many state courts is less sanguine.

Nearly 40 years of scientific #research by gov and non-gov agencies have concluded that #talc is safe, yet numerous #lawsuits have been filed by individuals with various #cancers who feel that talc was a leading factor in their illness: truthinscience.org/issue/tal…
Did you know? We're celebrating our 5th anniversary this year. 🎉
To commemorate the occasion, we sat down with our CEO, Jacob Traverse, to talk about our mission, impact, and vision for the next five years.

U.S. and global regulators have consistently concluded that #glyphosate is safe for humans and the #environment 🌎, but there has been focus of concern regarding a possible 🔗 between glyphosate exposure and #cancer, specifically non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma: truthinscience.org/issue/gly…
The CDC found that “more research is needed to assess human health effects of exposure to #PFAS,” yet, since 2017, more than $2.45B has been paid through mass #litigation settlements based on inconclusive science.
What’s up with these #foreverchemicals? truthinscience.org/issue/pfa…
Finding #truthinscience demands an integrated approach that respects methodology, #legal fairness, and #economic realities—precisely the perspective that we bring to the #acetaminophen 💊 debate and similar challenges at the intersection: tinyurl.com/bdfjyakf
FAQ: What core issues does #truthinscience focus on?
Our focus is on issues at the intersection of #science, #justice, and the #economy, esp. the arenas in which untested and unproven scientific claims are being used in lawsuits or regulatory initiatives: truthinscience.org/about/faq…
Rigorous, timely #science is the most cost-effective way to protect both wallets 💸 and #publichealth. The #acetaminophen 💊 controversy demonstrates how scientific rigor can ultimately save billions while preserving access to important meds: tinyurl.com/2v4sy4hh
