"Science communication is at a tipping point. When workshops receive 700 applications for 50 spots and conference sessions routinely overflow, we know we’re approaching critical mass. For decades, we’ve making the case for broader engagement. Whether it’s framed as a moral imperative, a financial obligation, or a pragmatic undertaking, the question is settled. “Should we?” Yes. The hard question remains “How?”"

'Visions of the Future' - Saturday 11 May 5 pm, Pegasus Theatre Oxford.
Eight PhD students and early career researchers from across Health and Life Sciences, Humanities and Social Sciences have been working together over the last months. They have explored common ground between their seemingly very different research areas and worked on new and creative ways to communicate their research. They will present the results of their collaboration on Saturday 11 May at 5 pm in the Pegasus Theatre. It'll be a firework of creativity, multimedia, current research and creative writing. There is a 1% chance of costumes.
Please come along! For more information and ticket booking, visit http://www.pegasustheatre.org.uk/shows/visions-of-the-future/.
Participants:
Health and Life Sciences: Dr Sarah Irons, Dr Clare Rathbone, Petra Kiviniemi

Well, I learned something new today. In addition to #GMO we now have #SMO as a tag for discussing synthetic organisms.

The Return of the Super Science Circle
Okay, I'll admit, I made a mistake in retiring the Super Science Circle. I wasn't wrong; Communities are still the future and the best way to make friends here on Google+. But I realized that the Super Science Circle is simple and efficient way to get new people to see that Google+ isn't a ghost town.
PLEASE SHARE THIS POST... FOR SCIENCE!
When I was attending +ScienceOnline 2013, I must have helped dozens of people join Google+, and the first thing I had them do was import this circle. It's an invaluable tool for getting new people up to speed.
So, I just did a complete refresh on the circle. I examined every single member and judged them according to my two-part criteria:
1. Active in the last 30 days or so.
2. Regularly post on scientific topics.
If you know anyone ... more »

This article provides a lot of food for thought on wider effects of synthetic biology. It uses synthetic production of the anti-malaria drug Artemisinin as example, and implications for farmers.

No 7 - Orson Scott Card - really struck a chord with me:
"“Writer’s block is my unconscious mind telling me that something I’ve just written is either unbelievable or unimportant to me, and I solve it by going back and reinventing some part of what I’ve already written so that when I write it again, it is believable and interesting to me. "

Plant Viruses DO NOT Infect Mammals
This paper was brought to my attention by Prof. Gary Foster (http://www.bristol.ac.uk/biology/people/gary-d-foster/overview.html) on Twitter. The research group behind it claimed Tobacco Mosaic Virus (TMV) can infect mice lungs. That's what they claimed but that's not what their study actually showed. There are plenty of reasons to not smoke, but being infected with a plant virus is certainly NOT one of them.
Firstly, I must point out that TMV is an extremely stable virus (see the links at the bottom of this post). It can persist in the environment for a very long time and stay infective (to mostly solanaceous plants). When placed in storage at 4°C/40°F, they can remain infectious (to mostly solanaceous plants) after 50 years. And that's how they spread - they are able to persist in the environment and contaminate anyt... more »

I had no idea that there were different views about colours in the world - colour realism (colours are physical properties of objects) versus colour fictionalism (the world is not coloured).

Are you an ecologist with an idea for a cool outreach activity? The British Ecological Society is touring music festivals and would like to hear from you.
"Winners will be given the opportunity to join the festival team and put their ideas into practice at next summer's top festivals.
(and in case you're wondering - the stall will be manned in two 4-hour shifts, so there'll be plenty of opportunities to enjoy the festival and catch some live acts)."

"In a major leap forward in this enterprise, today a European planet-hunting team announced their discovery of an alien world about the same mass as Earth. This alone would be noteworthy, for of all the “exoplanets” now known beyond our solar system, only a very few, and very recently, have been shown to at all resemble our own. But there is more to the story. This particular exoplanet resides in a three-day orbit around the dusky orange star Alpha Centauri B, a member of the Sun’s closest neighboring stellar system. There are two other stars in the system as well, the yellow Sun-like star Alpha Centauri A and the red dwarf star Proxima Centauri."

Super Science Circle - September 2012 Edition
The time has come to share the latest edition of the Super Science Circle. Got a boring stream? Then import this massive list of 400ish people who are active on Google+ and regularly post about science. We've got scientists, journalists, science fans... even a few astronauts. Circle them and your stream will get really busy.
Please reshare this circle... for science!
As always, I highly recommend that you import this circle into a brand new circle. Then you can extract interesting folks into more permanent locations in your circles. Play around with the noise controls in the circle to crank up the volume or turn it down, to get the right mix in your main stream.
Want to be in this circle? I'm always looking for more people who are:
1. Active on Google+ (but not too active)
2. Regularly... more »
