Science Communication in Evolutionary Biology: 3-Minute Talks
Faculty Sponsor(s)
Gregor Yanega
Location
Jereld R. Nicholson Library: Grand Avenue
Subject Area
Biology
Description
Science communication connects disciplines and is the glue that binds science to society. More than merely understanding concepts, scientists need to tell a good story that conveys an idea quick as a joke while being true to the science it describes. Twelve students of evolutionary biology have prepared semester-long synthetic reviews that they have spun into three-minute nuggets, designed to captivate and inform in equal measure.
