Description
I roll through origins to the strategic expression “Turn The Tables”, along with some tabletop history. As well, I discuss the benefits and drawbacks to Citizen Science, while diving into creating a more inclusive research community. I interview the terrific scientist and SciComm multi-tasker, Cassidy Swanston (MA), to talk about her experience building museum exhibits on citizen science and reflections based on her involvement in citizen science initiatives.
