Science and Culture: Avant-garde outreach, with science rigor.
On a breezy, crisp evening in December 2015, about 70 party-goers, some bedecked in feathers and glitter, entered the legendary Carwash disco in London’s West End. There they buckled packs containing accelerometers to their waists and danced for science. Daniel Margulies, a neuroscientist at the Max Planck Institute for Human Cognitive and Brain Sciences in Leipzig, Germany, and his postdoctora...
متن کاملCoordinating Science Education, Outreach, and Research
This paper describes the development of a new university physics course which integrates physics education, research, and community outreach. The coordinated system of activities links the new course to local community efforts in pre-college education, university education, university outreach, and research on teaching and learning. The course was found to improve student understanding of physi...
متن کاملAnimal Genomics in Science, Social Science and Culture
Animals are commonplace in genomic research, yet to date there has been little direct interrogation of the position, role and construction of animals in the otherwise flourishing social science of genomics. Following a brief discussion of this omission, I go on to suggest that there is much of interest for the social sciences and the humanities in this field of science. I show that animal genom...
متن کاملThe global need for poultry science education, research, and outreach.
The importance of poultry production worldwide is underscored by this statistic: poultry meat represents almost one-third of meat produced and consumed globally. Moreover, egg production, on a weight basis, is almost 80% that of poultry meat production. This was addressed in a previous editorial (Scanes, 2007b). The basis for the increasing importance of poultry worldwide has been research on g...
متن کاملNutrigenomics and its Applications in Animal Science
Nutrigenomics applies genomic technologies to study how nutrients affect expression of genes. With the advent of the post genomic era and with the use of functional genomic tools, the new strategies for evaluating the effects of nutrition on production efficiency and nutrient utilization are becoming available. Nutrigenomics plays an efficient role in various fields of animal health like nutrit...
