❎ #13 Science Storytellig (with Josh Ettinger)

Storytelling is an ancient art form and can be described as the social an cultural activity of sharing stories to audiences. Using storytelling elements in presenting the research process and research results can make research more accessible and give a human face to science. In order to learn more about science communication storytelling I invited Josh Ettinger to the scicomX Podcast. Josh is a PhD student at the University of Oxford where he analyses the communication around strong weather events. Next to his work as a PhD he also gives storytelling workshops to researchers, research organizations and firms. He caught my attention, because he has co-authored a correspondence in Nature on how science communication and storytelling can be great allies and how they can support each other.
