Today’s episode features guest host Michael Upshall (guest editor, Charleston Briefings) who talks with Stephen Webster, Director, Science Communication Unit, Imperial College, London.

Stephan began his career by studying biology and the life sciences and attended Cambridge University where he studied the philosophy of science, and became interested in how science is understood and taught. He spent several years as a secondary school science teacher in London and eventually led one of the first science communication master’s programs, and is currently a senior lecturer at Imperial College. Stephen believes that engaging and listening to the public is very important with science communication to build trust, and to see the public as partners who could be very knowledgeable. He also says that good science is built on well-supported scientists.
