Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world.Author: Scientific AmericanThis episode explores this Scientific American ethics collection as a systems-level analysis of how institutional incentives, pharmaceutical funding structures, and emerging genetic technologies influence behavior, belief, and scientific legitimacy.By focusing on incentive architecture rather than personalities or isolated scandals, the episode shows why ethical distortions persist — and how they connect to larger economic, technological, and institutional systems.📺 Watch on YouTube:👉 https://youtu.be/zH-axAeRXw8❤️ Support on Patreon:👉 https://www.patreon.com/posts/scientific-in-158134320?utm_medium=clipboard_copy&utm_source=copyLink&utm_campaign=postshare_creator&utm_content=join_linkAuthor SupportIf these ideas resonate, consider reading the work yourself or borrowing it from your local library.
