St. Louis, MO – This month marks the formal end of a three-year partnership between many St. Louis science organizations.
The goal of the partnership: increase the public's understanding of science so that people can participate in an informed way in policy discussions about such things as stem-cell research, global warming, and alternative energy.
KWMU's Science Reporter Robert Frederick examines the unique partnership and the hard lessons learned.
