Science Matters - Science Communication

A different Culture shaping Synthetic Biology in Europe Labiotech.eu

"How we talk about synthetic biology – and new technology in general – is often shaped by our culture. For those trying to bring investors and partners on board in a new venture, there is a danger of overhyping the impact of the technology. Audiences from different cultural backgrounds will also perceive the hype differently. I discussed the topic with Nadine Bongaerts-Duportet of Science Matters and Hello Tomorrow."

A Different Culture Shaping Synthetic Biology in Europe Synthetic biology research is strong in Europe, but the region has much to learn from the US when it comes to commercial translation, attracting investment and liaising with regulators. Europe’s synthetic biology scene is on the cusp of maturity. European teams dominated many areas in the overgrad...

Bio Market Insights interviewed Nadine about the importance of training researchers in science communication.

'Synthetic biology is increasingly being used to create new consumer products, which are now entering the market. The question is ‘how do we make sure society is ready for them?' - Nadine Bongaerts from Science Matters says

From our science communication training to real-life performance!

These PhD students from the Cosmic-H2020 did an excellent job at transforming their research into easy-to-understand presentations that were presented at the Science Café about rheumatoid arthritis in Stockholm 🤩👍

📣Please meet Rodrigo Garcia Valiente, Ana Coelho, Daniel Segura Garzon (left to right). Three ambitious researchers from Cosmic-H2020 who are studying the immune system to better understand rheumatoid arthritis (RA).

💊They will share their knowledge with you and discuss what new therapies for RA could look like.

👋We look forward to seeing you tonight in Stockholm!

Morgen, 13 april om 15:55 vergelijkt Nadine experimenten in SF films met de huidige stand van de wetenschap tijdens

Imagine Film Festival 2019 - Knippen in DNA Het zelf creëren van nieuw leven en manipuleren van bestaand leven loopt als een rode draad door de fantastische fictie, van Frankenstein, The Fly tot Planet of the Apes en De Lift.

We are happy to be a part of Horizon2020 COSMIC, a consortium focussed on combatting on B-cell lymphoma and rheumatoid arthritis. These are diseases that originate from abnormal functioning of the adaptive immune system. More info about the research via https://www.cosmic-h2020.eu
