Noggin + SciComm @ Kings!
March 9, 2022 @ 10:45 am - 11:30 am
WHAT: Noggin + Comms Sci undergraduates @ Kings!
We did it!
Wonderful questions from students!!
How do you handle the more controversial topics in science?
Can you offer an example of how you’d specifically integrate music into your outreach?
I’m so intrigued by where you go. How do you make these connections with different communities?
I love that you go places for outreach, and don’t rely on bringing people to campus (what you called “in-reach”). How do you avoid upsetting some of the more senior faculty who aren’t always comfortable with change?
What sort of institutional support do you receive for this wonderful work?
From Leigh Wilson, Public Engagement Manager, MRC Centre for Neurodevelopmental Disorders, Centre for Developmental Neurobiology, Kings College London: “We just wanted to extend our huge thanks for coming along and sharing amazing work, experiences, and philosophies with the students today. It was brilliant to hear your journey and the students (and us) were totally inspired hearing about your programmes and ideas. All best and thank you so much again for taking the time to come to King’s.”
WHERE: Centre for Developmental Neurobiology, Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience, New Hunt’s House, Guy’s Campus, King’s College London, London SE1 1UL, United Kingdom
The discovery of the structure of DNA in 1953 was enabled by Dr Rosalind Franklin’s X-ray diffraction work at King’s. This metal model stands in the entrance of The Centre for Developmental Neurobiology.
WHEN: Wednesday, March 9, 10:45am – 11:30pm GMT
We’re excited to meet with Comms sci undergraduates at Kings College London to share interests and experiences in innovative, evidence-based community outreach!
We’ll be at King’s the day before too!
