Metabolismecentret > Science Communication
Science Communication
The Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Basic Metabolic Research will develop a robust research-based communication platform to:
-
create a strong collaborative culture within the Center
-
strengthen its identity as a global focal point for metabolic science and related biotech and pharmaceutical industries
-
promote a broad public engagement with metabolic science.
The Director of the Medical Museion, Professor Thomas Söderqvist, will be the program's Director of Science Communication. He is an internationally recognized historian of 20th century life sciences (history of ecology, history of immunology) and a leading specialist in methods for writing the history of contemporary science and scientific biography. During the last ten years he has developed the medical history museum at the University of Copenhagen into an internationally acknowledged research museum for the study of the contemporary biomedical sciences in a cultural, historical and philosophical perspective and for the public communication of biomedicine through exhibitions and social web media.
