Scientific Communication - Telling Stories that Matter
Science can be complex and difficult to grasp, yet public understanding is crucial for navigating issues like disease risk, climate change, and pandemics. Clear, engaging science communication can help prevent misinformation and conspiracy theories, offering facts in place of myths. But how can we make science more digestible and appealing?
Counterintuitively, it might be less facts and more emotions that can help to make science more appealing, more impactful – both when communicating to the public and to fellow scientists. In episode 28 of We’re doomed, We’re saved, Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow discuss strategies for scientific storytelling, drawing on principles that go back to ancient Greece and draw from modern brain science. Spoiler: It´s not as hard as it may look.
