Dr. Rebecca Carter stood at the front of a crowded auditorium, the bright lights shining down on her as she addressed the audience. She spoke with conviction, her voice filled with intelligence and determination. "But we can't afford to ignore the evidence any longer," she argued, her eyes flashing with intensity.
