Book your ticket here.
Join us for a panel discussion exploring how to find the scientist in your community. This is a hybrid event with both in-person and online tickets available.
Moderated by award-winning educator and researcher, Dr John O’Donoghue from Trinity College Dublin, this panel will convene a range of experts in public science and science communication to consider the importance of education and public engagement for promoting ‘Good Science’ and how we can help facilitate accessible community engagement in science and research. This event is aimed at researchers, students, educators, policy makers, communities, and anyone with a broad interest in public science.
The panellists for the event are:
• Dr Claire Murray, Freelance researcher in citizen science and science communication
• Professor Alan Kelly, Professor of Food Science at University College Cork
• Dr Niamh Shaw, Scientist, engineer, STEM communicator, writer, and performer
• Dr Jessamyn Fairfield, Lecturer in the School of Natural Sciences and the School of English, Media and Creative Arts, University of Galway
‘Finding the Scientist in your Community’ is the third panel event in the Good Science Discussion Series, a series of public conversations organised by the Academy’s Physical, Chemical and Mathematical Sciences Committee that aim to address the important issues of science communication, ethical science and public trust in expertise.
