Debating truth is pulling us apart. Seeking the truth can bring us together. My name is Rob and I believe understanding and supporting science, exploration and research is more important than ever. I’m ready to shine a spotlight on those seeking answers.

My family and I know the impact of dementia well. We can’t let politics and games get in the way of progress and breakthroughs. It was very troubling to hear about this in our conversation with @fromthelabbench.bsky.social.

Just a first tease of our discussion with @fromthelabbench.bsky.social … A clip about the issues and stress caused by funding cuts (Note: We also talk about fun stuff too).

Research is often deeper and more connected/important than it seems at a glance. Helping the public understand the purpose and process of scientific research is more important than outrage headlines. Here’s another clip from our interview with @jonesforar.bsky.social.

So, what am I trying to accomplish with TrustLab? Well, it may sound “pie in the sky,” but I’m trying to change the conversation and turn the spotlight on those putting in the work to find answers, solve problems, and make breakthroughs. Here I am using lots of hand motions to explain …

Today we’re listening to @jonesforar.bsky.social, who is running for Congress in Arkansas. He brings a strong background in science and tech that informs his policy views. He’s addressing #AI and the critical importance of planning and guard rails in its use and expansion. Timely, to say the least.
