At the heart of the PCST Network is our Scientific Committee, an international team of researchers, practitioners, educators and innovators shaping the network’s vision and priorities.

We are delighted to introduce the fifth edition of the Meet the PCST Scientific Committee series. Each month, we feature different members, highlighting their journeys, experiences and contributions to advancing science communication globally.

Take the opportunity to connect, discover their work and engage with the ideas guiding PCST’s future.
