SKAPP or Scientific Knowledge and Public Policy project was established to encourage scholars and scientists to engage in the study of scientific evidence and its application in the legal and regulatory arenas.
The website, defendingscience.org has been created to be the forum to educate the various audiences about this issue and especially about the nature of science itself and how science is used by both regulatory and legal decision-makers.
SKAPP personnel are scientist and scholars who need a mechanism to publish their findings and research in a timely way. CommonSpot provided just the answer. An easy-to-use process for keeping this topical and relevant website up-to-date.
