May 2025 – The Good, The Busy, and the Ugly

Whew! Another Maycember in the books!

I hope everyone enjoyed Mother’s Day, Memorial Day, the end of school, and the subsequent 873 events and family obligations.

Here at Science for Georgia – we’ve got a new crop of summer interns who will be working on Data4Ga, data centers, a summer of stories, community outreach, and event and legislative session evaluations.

Get Involved and Be the Change You Want to See

Help Wanted!

We are starting up a new project cataloging and sharing the good, the missing, and the ugly impacts of science, or lack thereof. We need your help. To humanize what is happening – we need to find and share stories of real impacts on real Georgians.

  • The Good – positive impacts of science on society!
  • The Missing – Datasets, research, information, or services we can’t find or access anymore.
  • The Ugly – direct impact of lost services or data on individuals and communities.

May Recap

Data centers, data centers, and more data centers. Science for Georgia has been featured on local news stories and even spoke before the Georgia General Assembly. Data centers make our lives possible. They can be good neighbors – but it is up to us to ensure that they are.

Data, data, and more data. Our Data4GA project is going strong. We look forward to sharing new and updated stories by the end of the summer.

Combating misinformation. Michael has also been on a road-tour with their impactful training on how to find common ground with those who disagree with you. We all have more in common than you may think.

A fantastic talk by our friends Dr. Leslie Rubin and Kevin Li from the Break the Cycle of Health Disparities Program. Learn how interventions can create impactful change.
