``Science is big news. However, discussions about science don't always go the way we scientists expect them to. During the recent debates about GM foods, the MMR vaccine, nuclear energy and avian 'flu, there has been obvious public confusion and it is important for scientists to speak out both in the media and in public debates.'' Standing up for Science.
From my own experience I know this is harder than it sounds, especially for early-career scientists just starting out who are cautious that their words will be taken out of context by the media, or may get them into trouble with their peers. For this reason, the charity Sense About Science has developed a short guide to the media called Standing up for Science to provide some much needed help and advice.
