Science writer Misty Pratt joins me to break down why the possible dismantling of PubMed under Trump’s administration should concern all of us — especially women. We discuss how the U.S. government's cuts to health research and growing censorship could impact access to trusted science, the rise of misinformation, and why Canadians aren’t immune to the fallout. Plus, Misty shares where you can still find credible research (including Reddit!), and how Canada could step up as a leader in open-access science.
