In his essay for @SciPublic Jon D. Miller argues that while "more information is now available to citizens than in any time in human history" making use of it still requires a "core set of constructs about science". He outlines paths to re-conceptualize scientific literacy.

A challenging question for @SciPublic from @LuisaMassarani about the "low presence of Latin American studies in international journals": "Are papers from the so-called developing world evaluated in a more cautious way than manuscripts from the so-called developed world?"
