'Increasingly, social media serves as a central site for PopSci, with many scientists sharing their work and thoughts on X, Tik-Tok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and other venues. Although this strategy does have a broad potential for impact, those platforms also run amok with misinformation and anti-science to the point that anti-intellectual propaganda often swamps the voices of scientists. In a time where “alternate truths” and anti-science ideologies circulate widely, powerfully, and effectively, the public needs knowledge, insight, and assistance from science, and scientists, more than ever.'
