Stuart Ritchie (@StuartJRitchie) is a lecturer in the Social, Genetic and Developmental Psychiatry Centre at King's College London and author of Intelligence: All That Matters and Science Fictions: How Fraud, Bias, Negligence, and Hype Undermine the Search for Truth.
What We Discuss with Stuart Ritchie:
- Why good, meaningful science too often gets pushed aside by the hype around bad science that makes for sensational headlines.

- What is the Open Science movement, and how might it help us reform these problems in research going forward?
- And much more...
