About Us
Citation Needed was founded by students studying Food Science and Technology. Today, we are a group of students from multiple majors throughout the university. Our goal is to provide our members with opportunities to communicate and share their science. We prioritize correcting misinformation and learning effective communication techniques!
Is my food safe? What even are GMOs? Is gluten bad?
These are the types of topics that many of us encounter every day. Stop by one of our meetings to learn how to tackle modern dialogue on food, agriculture, science, and more! Refreshments will be provided!
