HSCI scientists work with future science writers

HSCI Executive Committee member Prof. Amy Wagers (right) recently spent two hours being interviewed by the students in an MIT Science News Writing class. The students had been given a study Wagers had published in Nature, and interviewed her in preparation for writing a news story about the study and Wagers's work. Two weeks before Wagers's appearance, HSCI faculty member Willie Lensch had prepared the class with a lecture on stem cell biology and the ethical controversies surrounding the science. The two scientists participated in the class as part of HSCI's on-going community educational program.
