ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Behind the episode: A new global survey finds that trust in science has fallen below its pre-pandemic level. But is this simply a story about misinformation, or does it reveal something deeper about institutions, inequality and the way expertise is communicated?
SignsWatch examines the distinction between scientific evidence and institutional authority, and asks whether the answer to declining trust might begin with earning it.
