Engaging scientists in story writing

“Science is all about challenging existing ideas—learning a new writing style
presents the opportunity to broaden your viewpoint as well as that of your
audience,” – Katie Burke, ©, 2015

Why do we engage science in story telling ?

  1. To give participants the background and skills to originate, research, focus and craft clear, compelling and contextual science stories on the project.
  2. Enable participants to write stories from labs on how the project has impacted them as scientists, with an aim to inform decision making in biosafety.
