Science + Society 2007

I recently attended Science + Society: Closing the Gap, a conference in Boston, MA on January 19-21, 2007. Participants included a unique combination of scientists, educators, journalists, and media producers.

Keynote speakers Al Gore and Shirley Ann Jackson agreed with most participants that technology and media, including film and video as well as new media tools like social networking sites, interactive websites, and online video, are vital tools in increasing the science literacy of American citizens.

Back from Uganda

Sorry I've been idle for awhile. I just returned from a trip to Uganda. I'll start posting again soon.
