Adventures in Science Communication: Shifting from the Lab to a Museum, and the Lessons I’ve Learned Along the Way

6/5/2017; 59 minutes

Scientists spend their entire lives collecting data, doing methodical research, and publishing scientific papers. But is that research really getting out in the world and making a difference?

Recorded on 02/22/2017. (#32097)
