#ScienceCommunication is a BIG part of what we do here at MBHG! ?
On 12 March, Profs Craig Kinnear, co-head of the SU Tuberculosis Host Genetics Research Group, and Soraya Bardien, head of the SU Parkinson’s disease research group, within MBHG where honored guests at the Genetic testing: valuable self-knowledge or snake-oil trick Stellenbosch University Science Café initiative.
The aim of this event was to promote the discussion of scientific issues, in this case Genetic testing, between scientists and members of society to ensure transparency, accountability and inclusivity in all aspects of research.
Science Café Stellenbosch is an initiative of the Faculty of Science at Stellenbosch University to promote the discussion of scientific issues in a language that everyone can understand.
