In this episode you meet Sam Illingworth, Associate Professor in Academic Practice at Edinburgh Napier University, who tells us more about his work and view on science communication. His research revolves around developing dialogue between scientists and nonscientists and in particular giving voice to those audiences that have been traditionally under heard and underserved by science and science communication. Sam Illingworth sees poetry as a powerful tool to develop a two way dialogue. He writes poems about scientific studies in his blog The Poetry of Science to communicate research to a non-scientific audience.
