Topic-Focused Reference

The NESS is building this new reference focused on specific topics of interest to skeptics.  For each topic we will give a concise overview followed by an index of articles and blog posts by the NESS on the topic, relevant SGU episodes, and key outside resources. We will also list important peer-reviewed research relating to the topic with a brief description of the findings.

This is meant as a resource for the public, for scientists, writers, journalists and other members of the media.

Please be patient as we build this resource. Each entry will be an open-ended work in progress that we will try to keep as up-to-date as possible.

For medical topics we will link to an identical resource hosted on Science-Based Medicine.
