Storytelling in Science

The Question posed on LinkedIn.

Many say storytelling in science is a great way to describe complex material in an understandable way for the masses. In this post, I will try to use an analogy to illustrate the complexity of a typical motile bacterial cell. Link to referenced article.

My advice:

Perhaps, as the blog suggested – write an abstract for Joe Public. As well as the article submitted to a journal, perhaps a press release or one page summary in very general terms as to what the study set out to do and what the conclusions were along with possible applications of the new knowledge (unless the study disproved something or was confirming another study).
