In this conversation, Dr. Jamie Loizzo makes a strong pitch for all scientists to communicate to the public in a variety of mediums: podcasts, photo essays, virtual reality tours, and more. Scientists have a social responsibility to strengthen public understanding and trust. Among other topics, she and Tony discuss her background in radio/TV; the critical importance in being understandable to middle schoolers; what makes for a terrific science podcast; and the importance of not just 'scaring' people but offering 'solutions.' Loizzo is an associate professor in the University of Florida's Department of Agricultural Education and Communication; her project, Streaming Science, disseminates research to the broader public alongside her students.
