This Study Shows

After all these episodes, we hope so. But when you’re trying to do a million things, sharing your story can fall to the bottom of the heap. Featuring Henry Dick from the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, Jennifer Cutraro from Science Storytellers, and poster pioneer Mike Morrison. 

Governments, publishers, and the public, oh my! We’re on a winding road of impact, and if we want research to influence real-world change, we’ve got to find friends along the way.  Featuring Kirsty Duncan MP, Canada’s Minister of Science and Sport, Jay Flynn from Wiley, and Valorie Aquino from March for Science.

You never know who will ask the question that inspires the next great discovery. Research can help solve big problems, and there’s no way to do it but together. Featuring Rhiannon Morris from Unique Scientists, Stephanie Dolrenry from Lion Guardians, and Stephan Lewandowsky from the University of Bristol.

Ideas are the “once upon a time” of the research process. If we think of research as a story, and scientists as the heroes, will we be able to build trust? Featuring Cailin O’Connor from the University of California, Irvine, Friederike Hendriks from the University of Muenster, and Will Storr author of The Science of Storytelling.

I do not think that word means what you think it means! When there’s a gap between what we mean and what is understood, it’s time to think about the words we’re using. Featuring Martin Glynn from Birmingham City University, science communicator Soph Talks Science, and Theo Sanderson from the Francis Crick Institute. 

If “facts are facts,” why don’t they hold up against skepticism or doubt? Maybe because we need to find the emotional truth inside all of that data. Featuring Mona Chalabi from The Guardian US, Tali Sharot from University College London, and David A. Kirby from University of Manchester.

This Study Shows is the new podcast from Wiley.

The everyday world goes about its business ignoring research. But we need research – it can help us find big answers to the big questions our world is facing. 

By transforming how we tell the story of science and building a foundation of trust and empathy, we can create a world where research captures the hearts of everyone.

Hosted by Danielle George and Mary-Ann Ochota, each of our six episodes will ask the tough science communication questions: how? why? and so what?
