The headline in a main Finnish newspaper on 16 November announced: “Trust and interest for published sci-ence has increased in Finland”. I would have hypothesized that evidence-based knowledge was losing the gameagainst the rush of non-scientific and commercial information – but I was wrong. A 3-year follow-up survey amongthe Finland population was clear on this. Could the growth in electronic and social media information actuallybe causing people to search for knowledge based on scientific facts?
