Welcome to SciCo, the meeting point for scientists working full time in any way of science communication. Share your experiences, express your concerns or make yourself known to colleagues. Meet other scientists who once decided that one of the most fascinating aspects of science is to get everyone to grasp its beauty and the excitement of understanding the world around us.



DON'T BE SUCH A SCIENTIST - a must-read for any science communicator

To get our site started, let us suggest a refreshing, inspiring and very useful book on our profession written by marine biologist and filmmaker Randy Olson. Science communication and entertainment can and should go hand in hand to spread scientific literacy: there is much to learn from Hollywood! And: you will not be able to supress a smile or a loud laugh while you read.
