Morgan Thompson, pgEd friend and advocate for public awareness about science, invited Marnie to the Ask For Evidence USA launch at the MIT Museum. The Ask for Evidence campaign encourages people to ask for the evidence behind scientific claims that they see in a news story or advertisement. The launch party featured vignettes Marnie enjoyed conversations with young researchers working to get this movement (which has been highly successful in the UK) off the ground in the US. We heard poignant vignettes about the importance of asking for evidence behind claims before making healthcare decisions based as well as humorous stories about the scientific basis behind popular Valentine’s-themed claims.
