When Authors and Scientists Collide Invited Talk
نویسنده
چکیده
'When it changed' and 'Litmus' have been two recent book projects from Comma Press, which brought together authors and scientists to produce anthologies of science-based short stories. Each story arose from the direct collaboration of one author and one scientist, and each was followed by a discussion of the motivating science. In this talk I will describe the interaction between myself as a scientist and two of the authors, our process of figuring out how to work together and the science of the two stories produced.
