In the last few months, I have written about Dr. Rush Holt's stewardship as CEO of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). Today I received a fund raising letter, mimicking the language of his earlier writings, but giving examples of how AAAS would "promote and support good science communication." All of this again presumes that the "scattered distrust of science" is due to poor communication and public misunderstanding. That may well be, but first and foremost Science has to clean up its own house. The current incentive system for research penalizes the care required to increase its reproducibility. Using the considerable influence of the AAAS to help address this does not seem to be a priority of Dr. Holt, who insists that science is just fine the way it is. If you received a similar fundraising letter from Dr. Holt, DTLR encourages you to send it to the shredder.
