"As I spend my days doomscrolling and grieving over all that we have lost and will lose to the climate crisis, I also find myself deeply craving tangible solutions, so I picked up this book." See if Eleanor Wang found what they were craving in this review berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025...

The real "scientific method" isn't perfect. It's human. So maybe more people will trust science, even fall in love with science, if we're honest about its joys, flaws, and impact. berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025... @seanmcarroll.bsky.social @drdre4000.bsky.social @dionerossiter.bsky.social

With all the hype around AI with supposedly human-level intelligence, scientists are actually quite far from a precise understanding of how our own brains work. Maybe an interdisciplinary approach to neuroscience is required for truly sustainable AI... berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025...

Academia has an ugly past of exploiting the Indigenous people on whose land we still live and work. But some scientists confront that past with honesty, paving a new way for researchers to learn and work alongside Indigenous communities. Read about it here! berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2025...

To know how animals behave in the wild, you have to observe them in the wild. It's a challenge to step outside the lab and do animal research in realistic habitats, but this is the hard science that's done at UCB's Field Station berkeleysciencereview.com/article/2024... #scicomm #animalbehavior
