Ep. #129: The Inquiring Minds Behind Science Writing, Kim O'Connell Choose to be Curious

    • Society & Culture

Pop quiz: what were the last five articles you read from a news source? And how many of them had to do with science? Climate change, perhaps? The chase for a COVID vaccine? Migratory paths of the monarch butterfly?

We depend, perhaps now more than ever, on the fierce curiosity of science journalists like Kim O'Connell. A celebration of all things science writing.
