"I learned educational theory and the physiology of learning so I could write a science curriculum appropriate to children".
The space element would comprise 2 co-orbiting spacecraft (TwinSat) involving a microsatellite and a nanosatellite, each including a suite of science instruments appropriate to this study.
The motivation of course is open sharing of knowledge for the advancement of science, with appropriate attribution and provenance of research work.
Although the current controversy may finally spur the adoption of some kind of prospective screening process, we now run the risk that heightened public attention will result in an overcorrection that is more restrictive of the conduct or communication of biological science than appropriate concern for biosecurity requires.
Further, multidisciplinary teams with expertise in epidemiology, statistics, toxicology, environmental health, database management, GIS, and other areas will be required to ensure sound science and appropriate analysis of data.
As in other areas of litigation science, however, appropriate statistical methods often do not preexist the dispute in question, but develop only as parties in a controversy actively sort out which end points, which causal factors, and which populations should be subjected to statistical investigation in the first place.
Students changed significantly on summary variables that assessed self-rated ability to design experiments, visualize methods based on data, visualize lab activities based on the written account in the journal article, manipulate data, relate results of individual experiments to "the big picture," critically review data, read science with appropriate skepticism, and explain results to others.
It seems that science is appropriating that strategy.
For example, if you know that you want to do basic research and run a lab in the biological sciences, the appropriate graduate degree is a Ph.D.
Statistics has a central role in the biomedical sciences, with appropriate statistical practices leading to an enhanced probability of reproducibility and the avoidance of false positives.
