To conduct and communicate scientific information with the public for the benefit of society, with excellence, integrity, respect, fairness, trustworthiness, clarity, and transparency. They play an important role in educating nonscientists about the content and processes of science. In fulfilling these responsibilities scientists must take the time to relate scientific knowledge to society in such a way that members of the public can make an informed decision about the relevance of research.
