I am a young scientist, in fact, at the time of writing this post, I am still in graduate school. However, what I lack in experience, I make up for it with a unique point-of-view.
The way I see it, there are many gaps in the science field. For example, I feel there is a huge gap between the scientific research community and the general public. I feel that, if we, as scientists, continue on the path we are currently on, these gaps will continue to grow deeper and wider.
My goal from this whole website is to provide a place online for those who are bothered by the widening science gaps to share and exchange ideas to bridge gap between the lab and the community. This bridge is a two-way path:
1. It will allow scientists to educate the community about science as well as.
2. The community would have a deeper understanding and appreciation for the value of scientific research.
Of course, this will not happen overnight… in fact, it will be a very long term process. But as with any long journey, it starts with the first step. As I embark on my journey as a young scientist, this website is my first step to identify my niche in science where I can create the most impact.
Will you join me and become a part of this journey?
