sciencemarchchicago: OUR MISSION To show support for the scientific community. To safeguard the scientific process, and research funding, when seeking answers to the things that matter. To publicly celebrate science, which helps us make sense of ourselves and our world. To encourage curiosity and exploration, the heart of the scientific approach. WHY NOW A recent focus on science and how scientific findings impact public policy has put a spotlight on the scientific community and their research. We accept that science, as a field of knowledge and way of thinking, is not swayed by politics or opinions; it is nonpartisan and all-inclusive. This is the time for us to come together as one community, take a stand, and lead a new conversation. WHO WE ARE We are scientists. We are enthusiasts. We are seekers of knowledge. We are Chicagoans. We are humans.We are a diverse group of individuals from all walks of life. We are curious, intrigued by science, and enjoy learning about scientific findings. Whether we practice, use, love, or study science, technology, engineering, or math, we appreciate what they have done for us and our society.
