There is a lot of misinformation in the field of foods and nutrition. I think it is partly due to the lack of
training in science communication among scientists. Communicating science to the public requires a
completely different skill set than those mastered by researchers, such as delivering scientific
presentations and publishing papers. This project provides an opportunity to develop science
communication skillshttps://youtu.be/Hhc5_ePV23M

Introduction
There is a lot of misinformation in the field of foods and nutrition. I think it is partly due to the lack of
training in science communication among scientists. Communicating science to the public requires a
completely different skill set than those mastered by researchers, such as delivering scientific
presentations and publishing papers. This project provides an opportunity to develop science
communication skills.
