Meetings with sponsors and authors

Briviodue stationery store organizes seven appointments with authors and researchers on science-related topics

Science Doesn’t Give Up: A Course of Encounters with Popular Advocates and Authors.

“I strongly believe in meetings with authors and I think culture is made with that too. Now we wanted to upgrade to a scientific topic to bring science into contact with the population by taking a look at the original and different issue.”

Romaine BernitasBriviodue, bookseller and stationery owner, explains the birth of Science never gives upA series of appointments that research scientific topics organized at the initiative of Fabiola Meganacoordinator and moderator of the meetings, in collaboration with Cittadella dei Giovani and sponsor of the Astronomical Observatory of the Aosta Valley.

Why review on science

“Science is collective,” he asserts, “and we must also reclaim this vision through disclosure that fills in the gaps that misinformation can take in.” Fabiola Megana.

A review was created to dispel the notion that science is the work of a few experts, and is certainly a complex subject, with an important access key provided by proponents.

“Science really does not succumb to disinformation, failure, time, power, and the search for truth – it continues Megan -. We have planned a schedule of appointments open to all, hoping to engage schools as much as possible, with book authors and science communicators on social media in order to embrace different ages.”

“Science is often seen as difficult because those who talk about it have not completely metabolized the arguments.” Jean-Marc Kristel, Director of the Clément Fillietroz Foundation, which operates the Astronomical Observatory of the Aosta Valley.

“Only an excellent researcher can be a good means of communication.”

Kristel He notes how the critical and self-critical position has been lost by the lay population that the scientific position “needs a re-accommodation in order to interpret reality and what one reads with one’s critical conscience”.

astrological hope Kristel Is that scientific concepts can take root and germinate in this region.
