Following our article: www.theexperimentalist.org/sci-comm/cre... we invite you to brainstorm on each of the solutions we listed to highlight biases that still exist in our academic circles.

First up, what #games would you recommend at science retreats to spark discussions on gender equity?

How important are analogies to our science stories?
Diatoms- think solar panels
Autoimmunity- similar to biting your tongue

They simplify complex ideas, create relatable connections, and make stories more memorable.

Improv need not be only for comedians and actors. It is for all. And definitely, for the scientific community.

Try improv with us. We do virtual sessions involving interactive games and discussions to tackle every #scicomm roadblock. The next session is on October 6, 3 pm Central European Time.
