Fun detail: Grace doesn’t trust a single measurement. He drops the test tube 20 times and averages the results. That’s not just good sci-fi, that’s exactly how real experiments deal with measurement error. It’s a tiny detail that tells you everything about who Grace is.

The first thing Ryland Grace does in Project Hail Mary is run a physics experiment. He drops a test tube, times the fall, and realizes something is wrong.

🏆 The 2026 Science Communication Awards are now open!
If you’re a science journalist, communicator, or researcher creating public-facing work communicating #STEM, I encourage you to apply.
Deadline: April 3, 2026

This talk started life as the keynote for the 2025 Canadian Biosafety Symposium, but the conference wasn't recorded so this is a general audience version recorded in December. It's absolutely critical for anyone doing #scicomm to understand that the standard framing of misinfo has major gaps in it.
Hi, I'll take a look. Possibly of interest: I recently did a podcast interview specifically on #scicomm and the importance of taking a clear-eyed look at where misinformation really comes from, plus a keynote last fall where I went through an extensive list of relevant examples (link in next post).
Medical Editing book cover
I was excited to score a signed copy of Barbara Gastel’s “Medical Editing”at the AMWA annual meeting last fall. It’s full of tips and resources I can use in my work. Students and others curious about working in medical editing may find it particularly valuable! #editing #scicomm
There's still time to apply to our Fellowship call. Deadline is 22 March at 11:59 PM Finnish time #AcademicSky #SciComm #EduSky #postdoc #postdocjobs #postdoctoralfellowship
🍻 What if learning about research happened over a drink, in the middle of a lively pub?
By moving science out of the lab and into social spaces, Pub Talks create friendly settings where curiosity, debate, and new ideas can flow as easily as the drinks. 🍺🔬

Contacting us for more information does not commit you to participating, and should you decide to participate you may terminate your participation at any time."
Attention Science Communicators!
We are conducting a survey on the landscape of science communication & need your help gathering experiences.
Please send this to #SciComm ppl you know. We want to get as thorough a sense of the state of the field as we can.

A question for BBC Radio4's 'More or Less' perhaps...?
If the last 'properly world-changing' Scientific Revolution happened 500 years ago, what are the chances of another one happening in 2026...?
Or next year...?
Or the one after...?
