@YouandCO2CCE, what do you think?
Starting to pull new collaborators in for the #PlayableComms project. Getting excited!!!
This week has already been busy prepping @YouandCO2CCE for stage 2 trials in schools, and exploring new funding opportunities. Looking for a big one so I can just collaborate with all kinds of experts to create interactive digital narratives to communicate tons of topics!

#SciComm tip - when you're communicating about your science or research journey, or when profiling another scientist, don't leave out stories about struggles, work-life balance, and how teamwork was critical to success. Let's not "sell" science as a solo "genius" endeavor.

I’ve seen a lot of questions about the importance of ventilation and the spread of SARS-CoV2. I have expertise in the science of indoor air quality & want to share some simple steps you can take to make your home & family safer during the pandemic. 1/

To accommodate folks new to our network, we're extending the submission deadline for our upcoming International Conference on #Narrative until Nov. 25, 2020. Help us spread the word among colleagues, #students, and young #academics!
Yay! That's what I'm doing! Got a #STEAM project to integrate with #elit? Hit me up! I'm looking for collaborations, and to help put #interdisciplinary teams together.

This week the UK passes the grim milestone of 50,000 official COVID-19 deaths. A disproportionate number of those deaths come from the most deprived communities. Tomorrow at 1.30pm we'll be talking health inequalities, vaccines & more. What would you like to ask our scientists?

It's a busy week this week for You and CO2.
@lskains and I are giving a talk to lecturers and researchers @KeeleUniversity today, hoping to inspire more people to try interdisciplinary working and incorporating more arts into science and science into arts :)
