Welcome to "The Engaging Scientist", a blog for scientists looking to elevate their communication skills and make a meaningful impact with their scientific knowledge.
Whether you're just getting started in science communication or you want to enhance your skills, the Engaging Scientist blog is here to guide and inspire you on your journey.
Written by both me and SciComm Society’s community members, the blog embodies our core values, which are at the heart of our every piece of content.
Belonging and Inclusion
💜 In a world where connection is more vital than ever, SciComm Society recognizes that relationships enrich our lives and make us stronger, happier and more resilient. Everyone deserves to feel included and not left out due to a lack of understanding.
Clarity and Simplicity
💜 Comprehending complex concepts shouldn’t feel like scaling a mountain. That’s why we champion clear and straightforward communication to express ourselves and bridge gaps to foster kindness, empathy and respect.
Empowerment and Freedom
💜 Knowledge is power and SciComm Society is committed to empowering others to make informed decisions. By understanding the latest scientific research, your audience gains the freedom to choose what is right for them, their health, society or the environment.
Self-Expression
💜 Your voice matters. Whether it’s through your research, your hobbies or your creative endeavours, we encourage you to express yourself authentically. Sharing your ideas, thoughts and visions without fear leads to personal fulfilment and growth.
Pleasure, Joy and Wonder
💜 Life is meant to be enjoyed and science is no exception. We celebrate the simple pleasures, the moments of joy, and the wonders of discovery. By communicating and expressing your thoughts and knowledge, you spark curiosity, ignite passion and spread the joy of scientific wonders.
In essence, communication is the thread that weaves through our core values, connecting us in our shared journey of discovery and empowerment. That’s why we invite our community members to share their SciComm Journeys on the blog. Let’s empower one another to make a meaningful impact on the world.
