(And traditional researchers can play a role in reducing barriers, as mentors/collaborators as well as when serving as editors, editorial board members, and peer reviewers by reducing topical gatekeeping and supporting citizen scientists and their work navigating the process of dissemination!)
@danamlewis Thanks for this! One thing I’ve noticed in the current upsurge of antivaxxers, there are some clever people out there going down stupid rabbit holes. If we could channel those people into a direct dialogue with professional scientists, maybe we’d gain some powerful new allies…
