How to evaluate scientific information on the Internet?

Teaming up with star colleagues and friends David Mondoloni, Dr. Eduardo Echer dos Reis, Dr. Johnatan Vilasboa, and Dr. Guilherme Brambatti Guzzo, we took the invitation from the Municipal Department of Education and Culture of the charming Antônio Prado city to talk about misinformation and how to navigate it on the Internet.

Key points:

  • You will find more misinformation than actual information.
  • Identify your experts: if something sounds the alarm in your mind, know where to go to fact check.
  • The Internet will create a bubble around you, if you feed yourself with too much misinformation, misinformation is all that will show around you.
