Challenging fake science
The founder of Transgender Trend, Stephanie Davies-Arai, was shortlisted for the 2018 John Maddox Prize.
The Christian Institute
The prize is awarded to those who address misleading information about scientific issues, bring sound evidence to the public and help others to make sense of a complicated scientific topic. The prestigious award seeks to recognise ‘the work of individuals who promote sound science and evidence on a matter of public interest, facing difficulty or hostility in doing so’. In her work, Davies-Arai challenged the unquestioning acceptance of transgenderism and addressed the concerns faced by parents and young people.
