in+between+science+seminar

Today I come to the Natural Museum of Science again to experience the “in between the science” meeting/ seminar in the science cafe. It was an amazing experience, as expected. Although the seminar was held in cafeteria, I feel like I am sitting in a national scientists meeting, everyone pay full attention to each speaker and they all communicate well, make some awesome discussions. Researchers and scientists from various countries gathered here. Researchers do a lot, they pose questions, collect data and analyze the evidence to find answers. Science is designed to remove personal bias and subjectivity, but scientists are human and hy nature, they all have thoughts, feelings and emotions. They talked about their experience and stories when they are not working. What happened to them in between science and personal lives. One researcher’s story impress me the most, she talks about how she and her team were on their way finding some resources for data collection and the car was out of gasoline, how they need to walk to the destination at night when it was rainy and cold. This is really surprising cause I never imagine collecting data would be this complicated and hard.
