The Dark Side of Science Communication
If: January 14, 2025, 5:30 p.m
Wo: FH Campus Vienna, Favoritenstraße 222, 1100 Vienna, Audimax F
Austria occupies an inglorious top spot in Europe when it comes to scientific skepticism. But why is that? And above all: what can you do about it? Martin Moder examines the question of why false statements often seem so convincing and how complex, scientific findings can be conveyed – in such a way that they are not only understood, but also believed.
Speaker: Martin Moder
Martin Moder is a molecular biologist and has been an integral part of the Science Busters since 2016. He received his doctorate from the Center for Molecular Medicine (CeMM) and runs the award-winning YouTube channel MEGA – Make Europa Gscheit Again.
