Because science saves lives, and that’s something worth celebrating. Join us in building a culture of gratitude for science.

People with vaccine injuries deserve care. Parents weighing vaccination deserve the full risk picture (including the disease). Supporting vaccination = taking its risks seriously. From History of Vaccines: historyofvaccines.org/blog/v…

A postpartum appointment doesn’t come with a ride or childcare. In a Chicago trial, trained navigators helped with those barriers. 96% attended a postpartum visit, compared with 80% receiving usual care. From @NorthwesternU: news.northwestern.edu/storie…

In a small trial, experimental gene therapy + goggles helped some people with profound vision loss detect and locate objects. Early results and larger studies needed, but the trial offers a glimpse of what that work could mean for patients. From @Reuters: reuters.com/business/healthc…

Do you wash your hands? But germ theory is JUST a theory 😱 Yes... a scientific theory: a well-supported explanation repeatedly tested against evidence. Our free K–2 Washing Hands lesson helps students explore the science behind something they do daily: ScienceSaves.org

In a five-year 249-patient lung cancer study, users of a specific app lived five months longer on average than those who did not use it. Earlier signal = earlier care. Full story from @radboudumc: radboudumc.nl/en/news-items/…

Progress has a more human unit than survival rates or treatment outcomes. A child gets to grow up, a patient gets more time, someone survives what once would have killed them. Ask governors to recognize March 26, 2027 as National Science Appreciation Day: sciencesaves.org/petition/

Science saved someone you love. A baby born too soon. A cancer patient with options. Someone who survived an infection. Help make March 26, 2027, National Science Appreciation Day, a day to recognize those lives. Sign, then send it to two people: ScienceSaves.org/Petition

Science class doesn’t have to start with definitions. Start with an artificial heart. Dialysis. A 3D-printed hand. Then ask: what would YOU build to improve a human life? Our free Grades 6–12 lesson turns that question into an engineering challenge: ScienceSaves.org/1stday

Before a newborn Logan could go home, he needed heart surgery performed at his bedside, eye surgery to protect his vision, blood transfusions, oxygen, and 99 days of NICU care. Today, Logan gets to tell that story himself. #ScienceSaves

"Thanks to science, doctors were able to diagnose his condition before he was even born using ultrasound technology." Oh, you know, just science changing lives before they begin.

Emily’s grandmother was diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2020. A stem cell transplant helped treat her. The science that made it possible began decades earlier. This is what scientific progress looks like from the other end.

For nearly 2 years, Maya’s mom knew something was wrong. Eventually, she was diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia. For Maya, seeing what the right diagnosis could do changed the way she thought about science completely. “Science is about refusing to accept incomplete answers.”

She didn’t fully understand what chemotherapy and radiation were doing, but she could see how much they affected her mom. We depend on science working quietly in the background. And that doesn't happen by accident.

Juliana’s father had a stroke caused by a completely blocked carotid artery. Medical imaging helped doctors find the problem and give her family answers. Today, her biggest supporter and role model is still here. Science saves.

In 1854, nearly everyone blamed cholera on bad air. John Snow mapped the deaths and found a different answer. Our free classroom lesson lets students follow the same evidence, find the cluster, and investigate the outbreak themselves: sciencesaves.org/teacher-res…

Sometimes the biggest breakthroughs are quiet parts of everyday life. Because of science, someone can see more than two feet away. What's something science has made possible in your daily life?

It's easy to talk about bone marrow transplants. It's harder to picture what one actually means to a family. This reel does both.
