Removing journalists as "gate keepers" of information, @ConversationEDU gives space for scientists to speak for themselves. Scientists then don't need to worry about being taken out context or distilling their message to 10 secs. @Fronj talks about how this builds #TrustInBiomed.

The scientific process is a standard way of addressing a question. Prof Pasricha @WEHI_research discusses how we hold researchers accountable to what they publish: journals scrutinising original images, uploading raw data to the web, & maybe even publishing fails. #TrustInBiomed

"It was a frightening time for all of us - clinicians, scientists & the public" - Prof Sant-Rayn @WEHI_research But then, as we quickly sequenced the virus genome, rapidly generated data and learned more, he was excited to see the scientific community come together.

@DrClareFedele and @CognitiveTx have made the transition from research to making impact in clinical roles, so there are important opportunities for #womeniniomed to seriously consider that are worthwhile #scicomm

@CognitiveTx - the original idea for the current research was a little "out there" and never assumed the idea would work, but followed the evidence #scicomm #womeninbiomed #womeninscience
