Talk nerdy to me: why effective communication is crucial in neuroscience

from The Plasticity Podcast

Hello! Welcome to the Neuroplasticity podcast, where I discuss how neuroscience research changed my life, all while my cat knocks things over and meows in the background in an attempt to ruin my life. Today's episode focuses on the importance of effective science communication at the academic, government, and social levels. Here, I delve into the realities of grant writing (especially in another language, cough cough Quebec), the challenges science faces in disseminating public knowledge, as well as the challenges of presenting to broader audiences at conferences. Please sit back, grab a tea or coffee, and listen as I share the importance of science communication, all while Hippo knocks things over and mews occasionally in the background (hence why he is a co-host).
