Science is all around us. How can science communicators promote research and understanding beyond the boundaries of traditional contexts? Our third SciComm Studio meetup explores science in unexpected places.
From festivals in baseball stadiums to art-science exhibitions and beyond, our speakers create engaging science communication in public places. They'll share their strategies for creating your own science events in novel settings.
Kishore Hari will share his experiences as Director of the Bay Area Science Festival and his involvement in the March for Science. Tanja Coray, Communications Officer from NCCR Digital Fabrication at ETH Zurich, will discuss innovative event formats and exhibitions that bridge art and science.
