The standard advice to researchers communicating about their science is to make it relevant by discussing possible applications. But if you’re a researcher focused on basic science, your day-to-day work probably doesn’t focus on applications. What should you do? Mónica Feliú-Mójer, Ph.D., #SciComm expert, suggests going beyond utility to connect basic science with audiences.
