Research Scientist
'I got involved with Sense About Science after attending one of their popular “Standing up for Science” media workshops for early career researchers which has since turned out to be the best use of my time after post graduate study.
I was warmly welcome into the Sense About Science office from day 1 helping out with various campaigns including the recent GM debate sparked from the threat to the Rothamsted wheat research, the Libel reform petition and the yearly compilation of “celebrity and science” news review. I have also been involved in subsequent “Standing up for Science” media workshops and this year’s annual lecture with Lord Taverne. The experience has taught me a great deal
and given me vast exposure to everyday reported science news items I would normally glance over. Now I read an article and think “Where’s the evidence?” Being a Scientist has become more than a career choice as I now feel a sense of duty to get my voice heard in communicating science to the public by contributing to debates and campaigns, blogging and engaging the public via social media.

I will highly recommend Sense About Science to any keen scientist interested in public engagement as a useful learning resource and a way to get involved in effective science communication. For early career researchers, it will be useful to join the Voice of Young Scientist network and to attend any of the “Standing up for Science” media workshops held regularly throughout the year.'
