Write a short 1-2-page essay (300-500 words) addressing the following questions (this should not take you more then an hour or 2):
There are “disconnects” between scientific evidence and public policy or public behavior in U.S. society. Describe an example, including a synopsis of some relevant scientific evidence. Overall (not just with reference to this particular issue), to what extent do you think that science is divorced from public policy and societal problems? Is this good, bad, or simply unimportant?
