This week, we hear about the Banff Centre's 2011 Science Communications Program. Communicating science, for many, is no easy task. The aim of this communication program is to allow participants to take a step back from their daily pursuits, open themseves to new, different and not-so-common ways of expressing that passion that drives those with a scientific mind. Michelle speaks with Lesley Ogdon, a participant of the program, and Kelley Remole from Columbia University.
