What if the problem isn’t your research… but how it’s communicated?
In this episode of Why Research Matters, I sit down with Yulia Akisheva to explore a gap most scientists feel but rarely talk about: the distance between doing great science and making it understood.
From fear of sounding “not smart enough” to the reality that people remember only a tiny fraction of what we say, this conversation dives into why communication is not a soft skill in STEM—it’s a core skill.
If you’re a researcher, student, or anyone working in science and R&D, this episode will change how you think about sharing your work.
