 y Taubes\, co-founder of Nutrition Science Initiative\, will present the 3
 8th Annual Herbert Lourie Memorial Lecture on Health Policy titled\, “The 
 Uncertainty Principle: Diet\, Disease\, and the Limits of Scientific Conse

 uld we be in the science? Gary Taubes has spent decades probing the gap be
 tween scientific consensus and scientific certainty\, from cold fusion to 
 dietary fat to sugar. At a moment when nutrition guidance is being questio
 ned and rewritten\, he asks what “consensus” really means in health scienc
 e\, when it deserves our trust\, and how to think critically about the que
 stions science hasn't settled.Gary Taubes is the author of six books\, inc
 luding the best sellers Good Calories\, Bad Calories and Why We Get Fat. H
 is latest book\, Rethinking Diabetes\, was published in 2023. He is a form
 er staff writer for Discover and correspondent for Science\, and his writi
 ng has appeared on the cover of The New York Times Magazine and in The Atl
 antic\, Esquire&nbsp\;and numerous “best of” anthologies\, including The B
