Welcome to the first issue of the Bias Research Initiative’s online newsletter, Practically Scientific! The Bias Research Initiative’s purpose is to seek fundamental understanding of bias in science, technology, and society. What are the biases that influence our thoughts and actions? What is their fundamental nature? Can we overcome them to become more rational and effective in pursuing our goals? These topics are central to this newsletter as well, but the scope here is broader.
