The Lab’s mission is to help close the gaps between professional knowledge and lay-people’s knowledge about health, science and safety so that more individuals and communities can live healthier and safer lives.
The Lab is a space where you can browse through our “lessons” and sound bites on an ever-expanding range of topics – all about how people use language and communicating about health and science.
We’d love it if you could contribute by joining in, leaving comments, sharing your own ideas and things you’ve found are working to advance people’s engagement and understanding of health and science.!
When it comes to public health we believe, without a doubt, that excellent communication is a basic ingredient of a more equitable society and world.
We hope you bring your curiosity and passion for excellent communication to your time at The Lab. And if you don’t share quite that much passion, we hope we can contaminate you with ours.
Welcome!
