Newman, Daniel Aureliano (Author)
Back when I was a graduate student of biology, I was charmed to hear senior scientists sincerely praising research talks by equally senior peers as "such a good story." At the time, I simply accepted that science involves gripping tales of discovery, mysteries solved through ingenious hypothesis and experiment. Now a literary scholar who teaches communications to graduate science students, I better recognize the importance of narrative in science communication but also, more profoundly, in scientific theories, models, and procedures. Narrative suggests to me a means of interesting more scientists in the study of Literature and Science, offering common ground that might help alleviate remnants of suspicion and diverging goals that continue to inhibit truly interdisciplinary work. What's more, attending to narrative promises an exciting but also productive endeavor for both humanistic inquiry and for science communication, aligning them more closely at a time when both are under threat.
