Telling the Story of Science

Date TBA

This panel explores the intersection of science, communication, arts, and culture, challenging conventional wisdom and offering new perspectives on how we convey scientific knowledge. While science thrives on the uncertainty of discovery and the iterative process of testing hypotheses, society increasingly craves certainty and definitive answers amidst chaos. Our panelists will discuss the art of storytelling in making complex scientific ideas accessible and the necessity of fostering a public that is comfortable with the evolving nature of scientific understanding.
