The role of a scientific culture unit
How do universities communicate science?
Most research institutions nowadays have working groups, departments or units that are active in the dissemination of science. They are involved in a variety of tasks: transmitting information to the society at large, training staff, and increasing the visibility and reputation of the scientists and of the institutions who host them.
