Brian Cox, Neil deGrasse Tyson: Science Communication in the 21st Century | Starmus III

Описание: What makes science communication truly impactful? In this engaging discussion, Brian Cox and Neil deGrasse Tyson explore the challenges and strategies of bringing scientific concepts to the public in the 21st century. From the legacy of Carl Sagan’s Cosmos to the role of uncertainty in scientific inquiry, they discuss how storytelling, television, and pop culture influence the way people perceive and engage with science.

📺 Featuring:

Brian Cox – Renowned physicist, professor, and BBC science communicator known for Wonders of the Universe and The Planets.

"In the UK, we have the BBC - a public serviced broadcaster, in the purest sense of the word - and its mission is to engage and bring people into diversity programming….What worries me in the US is that when you have multiple channels (such as The Science Channel ) and those channels are “specialist”, you’re in great danger of ghettoising the audience, and you end up preaching to the converted rather that drawing in new people in and introducing them to ideas…”

Neil deGrasse Tyson – Astrophysicist, author, and host of StarTalk and Cosmos: A Spacetime Odyssey.

"Id like to think that what science communication might be going forward - would include more of a direct statement of relevance to how we live our lives, to the role that science plays in politics, to the survival of our species…”
