RE: The reasons why science communication benefits you as a scientist – Why talking to other people is important for your research

Nice post!
May I make a suggestion...?
Sometimes imagination and fiction could give a good idea of science and avoid theoritical thinking.
Hope I read more from you :)

Sort:  

@chbalk I am not sure if I understood your message correctly, but I would agree that we can use fiction as an analogy or metaphor of sorts to help people understand and think about a concept that they don't have a strong scientific background in.

In any case, we have our own extraordinaire contributor to the cause, @suesa, who uses her fiction stories to entertain, inspire and educate people in the wealth of science knowledge.

That is exactly what I meant. Attracting people to science theough fiction.

When you find some time you may read some fiction stories of mine ;)
Take care and let us enjoy your contribution!
