I am the John E. Ross Professor in Science Communication at the University of Wisconsin–Madison. My research deals with the public opinion dynamics surrounding controversial science, focusing particularly on the interplay among media, policy actors and lay audiences. In those areas, I have consulted for Porter Novelli, the World Health Organization, the World Bank, and other corporate and public sector clients worldwide.
