  • Science under attack?

    Science is great but the government should not be the only employer to the sciences. Why can’t you see that the private sector should be the primary source of revenues? Nonprofits and investors have a great role here. The US faces national security threats due to our continued trillions of dollars in deficits. Where would You balance the budget while keeping our country secure?

“The dose makes the poison” is outdated
Q: How would you change the guiding principles away from the dose makes the poison?
Bruce suggests adopting the recommendation of the National Academy of Sciences to assume there isn't an evidence of a threshold unless proven otherwise and recognizing the severe impact of low-level exposures at a population level.
“The dose makes the poison” is outdated
Q: How do you come down on that, Bruce?
Bruce emphasizes the need for a shift from water fluoridation to direct application of fluoride to teeth, noting that existing studies question the efficacy of fluoridation in preventing tooth decay.
“The dose makes the poison” is outdated
Q: Tell us a little bit about the investigation that you're currently the principal investigator on because it's directly related to what we're going to talk about today.
