Doing a little Saturday morning reading and @robertakwok.bsky.social nails it right out of the gate with her opening to “Lost in Curiosity.” Excellent discussion/descriptions of the often messy and time-consuming process of science. More people need to understand this.
Fascinating stuff …
A small bit of good news …
Here’s another clip from our first episode with @jonesforar.bsky.social in which we discuss the pressing need to identify new ways to cut through the noise to deliver real information about science & searching for answers. Difficult task. There are a lot of great communicators, but even more noise.
New Podcast episode! She became an Engineer to make Art: A chat with MandyDraws youtu.be/0SZUKcaQHD8?... #sciart
We like reading around here and this new book from @robertakwok.bsky.social seems just right …
Something to take your mind off … almost everything else going on.
My family and I know the impact of dementia well. We can’t let politics and games get in the way of progress and breakthroughs. It was very troubling to hear about this in our conversation with @fromthelabbench.bsky.social.
Sometimes I start to worry that rallying people around science and expertise is going to be too hard.
Courage is contagious.
Here’s the full interview with @fromthelabbench.bsky.social from last week. It was a blast to talk to her about her work in #scicomm and about challenges facing research and science. See it on our YouTube channel and subscribe!
And our second episode is live! Check out our great conversation with @fromthelabbench.bsky.social about science storytelling, funding cuts, NIH changes & more! truthlabexperiment.substack.com/p/the-truthl...
Can’t wait to see the “Dateline” episode about this…
Not the way to keep the U.S. strong in STEM and research/discovery. “Concerning,” as Elon Musk would say.
Rushing these technologies to market to nail down big contracts is dangerous. If it’s bad at managing healthcare workers, imagine the errors it could lead to with the military. apple.news/ABw6uO-6dRoS...
The trickle of bad funding news continues. We discuss this in our next episode, coming tomorrow.
Sharing for cool content and great hashtag.
This is a depressing situation. It would seem that we could find funding solutions, but time is not our friend.
In our upcoming episode, @fromthelabbench.bsky.social talked about why telling science stories is so much fun.
