Finally got new stickers for my hydroflask. Not a particular theme, just things I like.

I think every aspiring scientist in some point of their education should have to teach a college level class to elementary school children, while making it fun and understandable for said children. Being able to communicate complex ideas to all age ranges is extremely important for science literacy. It’s paramount that a scientist is able to explain their field to anyone who wants to learn. A lack of science communication in the past years has been a factor in many people choosing to ignore and reject science. Science is not exclusive to professionals. Science belongs to us all.

This is important for future doctors as well. If you’re not able to simplify your terminology or if you’re not learned enough in your field to summarize the situation, you need to rethink how you communicate to your patients.
