or years, CERN’s hero was the Higgs boson. Physicists had a quest: to find this elusive particle using the world’s largest machine, the Large Hadron Collider. When the hero was discovered in 2012, CERN and particle physics made front-page news worldwide.
PCST is the largest and most important conference in science communication around the world.
Within the ecosystem of science communication, scientists definitely play an important role in the equation. However, due to the nature of work, involving scientists in public science communication is still a common challenge.
Thailand is one of many countries striving for economic development through science, technology, and innovation. Regardless of the strong government policy and support in science and formal education, the national competitiveness index including science literacy continues to be ranked below the average OECD countries, for many years.
This presentation presents results of PhD research into science heroes as communicators of influence, exploring the life histories of a subset of those nominated as science heroes to explore narratives of identity and influence on career pathways and life-long engagement with science.
Citizen science has expanded globally since the mid-1990s, marked by a proliferation of opportunities for citizens to participate in the practice, culture and narratives of science and leading to the emergence of exciting (and sometimes challenging) new areas of research, policy and narrative.
Science museums are a means of communicating sciences to a wide audience, particularly interactive science museums have recently acquired a strong role in this regard.
Citizen Science (CS) is a form of informal science education where participants have the opportunity to participate in scientific research to learn scientific information, gain understanding of the nature of science, and develop their skills in the methods of science.
Stop-motion animation (also called stop-frame animation) is animation that is captured one frame at time, with physical objects that are moved between frames. When you play back the sequence of images rapidly, it creates the illusion of movement. This technique is particularly appropriate for learning how to communicate science to a large public.
According to the report of the Observatory of Natural Therapies in Spain (2008), acupuncture is better known and used than homeopathy, however, news production in this respect slightly reverses this correlation.
In this proposal we reviewed the health literature and identified key principles for the care of patients with chronic conditions that could be applied to environmental management.
Genetically modified (GM) food has been the subject of public controversy ever since its first application in the 1970s.
Comics is an entertainment and culture form well known worldwide and has as main feature the unity between image and text.
The growth of world-wide activity in citizen science represents one of the most important recent developments within the broad field of science communication and citizen-science relations.
Despite awareness of negative impacts of deficit-model science communication (in which the scientist is seen as the knowledge-holder, and the target audience seen simply as the passive recipient), a huge number of science communication initiatives continue to use this mode.
The world of nano-science and nanotechnology exist outside our lived experience.
