Trust in Science at Ca' Foscari University

Against the backdrop of the contemporary decline of trust in democratic institutions, can science be (and be perceived as) both reliable and useful? TIS aims at rethinking the fundamentals of the idea of trust in science in a framework that brings together philosophical analysis and practical applications. TIS originates from a Ca’ Foscari seed grant (SPIN project "Trust in Science") allocated for the purpose of identifying an international network of expertise on trust in science and related topics, and of suggesting lines of research that can have an impact on social debate.
