Go Deeper with Foundational Content

Welcome to the bedrock of scientific literacy. Here, we guide you through the essential tools for understanding research: how to read a study, spot sensationalism, and interpret what the data really mean. Because when you grasp the foundation, you don’t just absorb the headline, you understand the story behind it.

How We Approach Science Communication

Science is the foundation to our understanding. Science at its core is the practice of testing ideas, making observations and narrowing down likely answers based on evidence. Unfortunately, science is not perfect. It is complicated, prone to human error, and too often open to misleading interpretations.

That is why Caveat Scientia exists. We are an evidence-based scientific and educational resource. We focus on highlighting nuance and providing important context to scientific understanding for the general public.

We are ad-free and 100% unmonetized.
