Our latest newsletter – the first under the banner of the European Competence Centre for #SciComm – is now out! 📜
coalesceproject.eu?na=view&id=21
We have some highlights from our time at #PCST2025 (cc: @pcstnetwork.bsky.social) and updates from our COALESCE Hubs.
Happy reading!
As we saw at #PCST2025 there's still an appetite to continue discussing communicating #BasicScience. We’ve shared insights over the last few months about the #SciPEP Insights Report, a great synthesis of where we are now. Looking forward to what's next! publuu.com/flip-book/68...
#SciComm #SciEngage
Thank you #PCST2025 and the whole @scicommcentre.eu team for an insightful week. It has been a pleasure!

Como suele ocurrir en ciencia, también en la comunicación científica las preguntas son tan o más valiosas que las respuestas y, entre otras cosas, #PCST2025 ha estado lleno de preguntas y reflexiones interesantes.

Tackling the big question: why are #carehomeresidents still missing from #vaccinetrials? (spoiler: we're changing that!)
From policy to poster sessions, we're making noise for #vaccineequity one conference at a time!
Seems even worse after our panel on GenAI in science communication at #PCST2025 today. The problem is humans and how they use tech, not tech itself.

So #PCST2025 is over and you have a few days in Scotland but don’t know what to do…..
I’M SO GLAD YOU ASKED ME!
First off if you’re staying in Aberdeen some places that you can day trip to for a little adventure are the Cairngorms!
Today we presented our latest results about Spanish Scientific Culture Units at #PCST2025.
Scientific Culture and Innovation Units’ (UCC+I). Communication activities, audiences, resources, and motives. #PCST2025
English and Spanish report and recommendations www.fecyt.es/publicacione...

“We need a real change of attitudes on #publicengagement, both for scientists occasionally involved in it and for science communicators”, states Gema Revuelta at the #PCST2025
Comunicadores científicos e investigadores están bastante alineados sobre la distribución de responsabilidades en torno a la comunicación científica , aunque con diferencias interesantes #PCST2025
On the historical relevance of #scicom topics from a while ago, Brian Trench states “this isn’t just old soldiers visiting old battles”, but rather a testament of how some approaches stand the test of time. #PCST2025
Last day of the #PCST2025 conference in Aberdeen!
➡️ Gema Revuelta presents at the session “Reviewing #scicom: 25 years of transitions, traditions and tensions” (session I:1), with Brian Trench, Richard Holliman, Ana Godinho and Elsa Poupardin.
See you there!
Starting the long journey home from #PCST2025 thanks Aberdeen
