Communication

Our principal task as scientists is to advance the fundamental understanding of nature. In the CHROMETAB lab we believe that part of our social contract is also to communicate our discoveries in an intelligible, agreeable and exciting way to the lay public.

We are committed to reaching out to non-scientists to explain, debate and communicate the relevance of our discoveries and the general importance of basic research to the social fabric.

Below are some examples, hopefully the first of many more to come.
