The Yale ‘Integrity’ Project

Leveraging the name and reputation of Yale University, the Yale ‘Integrity’ Project’s McNamara et al. paper has been treated by some as though it is a credible scientific critique of the UK’s 2024 Cass Review, which found “remarkably weak evidence” supporting the social and medical interventions promoted by ‘gender medicine’ for youth.

On this page we bring together various articles that critically examine the Yale ‘Integrity’ Report’s claims, as well as unpacking the interests and agendas of those behind the project, and contributing authors to the McNamara et al.
