The health disparities of the pandemic and the spread of health science misinformation have spotlighted the need for our organization to take on an expanded role in health science communication and advocacy. Expanding our work will allow us to take action on the most urgent health science needs of our community, such as educating Nebraskans about vaccines, clinical trials, and the need for more diversity in research. At the same time, we will continue to educate about biomedical research and the false promises of unregulated stem cell therapies.
