Is there a credibility crisis in the sciences? Are there different kinds of trust? And how can scientists promote the credibility of their research? These are some of the questions discussed by Prof. Dr. Mathias Frisch and Prof. Dr. Torsten Wilholt, the directors of the Centre for Advanced Studies SOCRATES. Given their expertise in philosophical questions surrounding trust in science, they have founded SOCRATES in order to address the challenge of understanding how science can continue to serve as a source of shared knowledge, which not only enjoys trust but also merits it.
