This Study Shows
The only way for research to change the world is if the world knows and cares about it. In This Study Shows, a podcast from Wiley, we explore how to connect research with emotions and experiences and transform the way science is shared. Hosted by Danielle George and Mary-Ann Ochota, each of our six episodes asks the tough science communication questions: how? why? and so what?

Our hypothesis: when people have the chance to participate in research, they understand it better and trust it more. Do the secrets to a more engaged public lie with Kolbi Brown, of the NIH's All of Us program, or Els Baeten, a citizen scientist at Galaxy Zoo, or with Sarah McAnulty, the founder of Skype a Scientist?
