I'm in DC again at the American Institute of Biological Sciences meeting, hearing all about evolutionary biology and human health. It's been busy, but yesterday I ran into fellow sciencebloggers Chris Mooney (who was giving his "Framing science" talk along with Matt Nisbet, who I didn't have a chance to meet).

So: I'm in D.C. right now. That's because Nisbet-Mooney just gave our last "framing science" talk of 2007--a lunch event yesterday at the National Academy of Sciences' Keck Center. This talk wasn't open to the public, so we didn't publicize it, but we can't think of a better place to wrap things up…
I spent the day in Washington D.C. yesterday. My SciBlings Matthew Nisbet and Chris Mooney were speaking at the annual meeting of the AIBS (that's the American Institute of Biological Sciences). The subject: How to communicate science effectively.
They make a number of persuasive points, and I…
Last week, it was suggested, ridiculously, that the Nisbet-Mooney "framing science" team might actually be a sleeper cell of crypto-creationists.
Roger Pielke, Jr., who similarly has to deal with repeated charges that he's a conservative or a Republican, has now come to our defense:
Chris, and…
