Discussion

Participatory models for bigger science

With increased connectivity, we have the opportunity to bring our work to audiences that have never been engaged in science before. This is a good opportunity for students to explore the differences in participatory models between fields, and discuss what engagement means in different fields. We provide a more extreme example, with participatory biomedical research- how do we engage people in our work when the direct ties to their well-being are more tenuous?
