Actor, director, writer, and science communicator Alan Alda in his MASH days
|
Science can be confusing. It’s great to see science communication being
recognized as a public welfare.
From the Alan Alda Center for
Communicating Science:
“The National Academy of Sciences is presenting its 2016 Public Welfare
Medal to actor, director, writer, and science communicator Alan Alda in
recognition of his "extraordinary application of the skills honed as an
actor to communicating science on television and stage, and by teaching
scientists innovative techniques that allow them to tell their stories to the
public." The medal is the Academy's most prestigious award, established in
1914 and presented annually to honor extraordinary use of science for the
public good.”
