Science communication continues to rise as more and more Filipinos see its relevance in our world today! When we know more about science, we also build trust and acceptance with it!
We invited one of our resident science communicators, Kami Navarro, to talk to us today about the wonders of science communication! As the Scientific Writer and Editor at the National University of Singapore’s (NUS) Synthetic Biology for Clinical & Technological Innovation, she spearheads the communications efforts of NUS’ focal synthetic biology research programme. Previously, she was the Science Editor of the Singapore-based Wildtype Media Group, where she managed the award-winning science and technology publication Asian Scientist Magazine.
Prior to her stint at Wildtype Media Group, she helped pioneer a curriculum for Science and Risk Communication in the Philippines! She has also published an article and a book chapter on the state of Philippine science communication; both works are regularly cited and used by the local Department of Science and Technology in their outreach activities.
