Scientists around the world are increasingly under pressure. In the course of some major recent events, such as the Brexit referendum, the election of Donald Trump, and legislation in specific countries, science has been under hefty attack: Its methods, data, and results are fundamentally questioned – to an extent to which the use of scientific work as such is disavowed. As a reaction to these developments, the movement “March for Science” was formed at the beginning of this year. Also in Berlin, a large demonstration took place at the Brandenburger Tor to support scientific freedom.
