MAMA MAMASEN

As I wrote in my first post on this blog, I do very much feel like a beginner at using social web media, although I have been on Facebook LinkedIn etc. for what feels like a long time now. But I must say that new worlds are opening themselves to me. Here just a few […]

Just thought that I’d share a few links to some articles about the relation between science, journalism and science communication through times. To me they give an interesting perspective on how social media is an obvious channel for communicating science to both a narrow and a broad audience and how it is linked to the […]

Stablerne af kasserede genstande står rundt omkring i gården, og ser fortabte ud i gråvejret. Heldigvis har vi nået at redde langt de fleste genstande fra vandskaden efter skybruddet i starten af juli, men der er stadig en del oprydningsarbejde tilbage i kældrene. Her har vores brave studentermedhjælpere knoklet næsten uafbrudt i de sidste 3 […]

Who does research in public health sciences? Searching for who and how social media is used to communicate public health research, this question all of a sudden becomes relevant. The answer is of course quite trivial. Lots of institutions and organisations conduct research in public health related issues. The spectrum goes across from private industries […]

As a previous employee of the Danish National Board of Health I was a few years ago involved in the development of the new website. The website had to live up to the new possibilities of web 2.0. However, the inclusion of social web media and dialogue functions were, after many discussions, not made part […]

For the last couple of months I have been searching the internet for good (and bad) examples of social web media used to communicate Public Health research. And although Public Health is not the dominating topic on scholarly web 2.0 communication the variety is still great. Putting the magnifying glass on blogs it becomes clear […]

I like writing, so I guess it is only right to get started on some blogging. Actually, it is practically part of my job description to be out here on the social web media and I am a happy reader of several blogs so others might say that it is highly overdue. For a while […]

A three-year Ph.D. scholarship has been announced at Medical Museion, Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Copenhagen. The scholarship is part of the research project ‘Vision and touch: a material history of the world of blindness’, which deals with the history of blindness and its intricate relation to vision, representation, touch and physical objects. The […]

Sommeren er over os, men det gode solskinsvejr lader vente på sig. Hvorfor så ikke tage børnene med på Medicinsk Museion og bruge en time i selskab med medicinens historie? På Medicinsk Museion tilbyder vi i juli og starten af august omvisninger i børnehøjde. Sammen med museets omviser tages børnene med på en udforskning af museets […]

Som tidligere nævnt her, her og her  på bloggen, har vi i den grad haft vandskade i kældrene på Medicinsk Museion efter skybruddet forrige lørdag. I sidste uge måtte Niels Christian og Jacob, med hjælp fra et par flyttefolk, bære alle de tungere genstande op fra kældrene og ind i bil, der skulle køre dem til magasinerne på […]

I am repeatedly thrilled by news of events arranged by the European Neuroscience & Society Network (ENSN). If it does not clash too much with my planned research stay at BIOS in London in September, I will definitely find my way to Groningen for this conference as it fits very nicely with the next part […]

Her i ugen efter skybruddet fortsætter redningsaktionen: Alle på Medicinsk Museion er kommet ud af kontorene og hjælper til med at adskille gennemblødte bogsider, lægge genstande til tørre i solen og ompakke våde knogler. Det har været en slem omgang for os, for de genstande der var opmagasineret i kældrene og for hele bygningen, som Thomas her påpeger […]
