Dr. Miao Liao Joins the Team
7 July 2017
We welcome Dr. Miao Liao from Chinese Academy of Science and Technology for Development (CASTED), Ministry of Science and Technology, to join our research team on Governing Scientific Accountability in China. Dr. Liao is to work with Dr Joy Zhang to develop an Educational Module Resource (EMR) on the public engagement of science for key Chinese institutions.
The need to establish an EMR with locally-adapted teaching material to support scientific practitioners and educators learning about research-related practices, was identified in our Wuhan workshop this March. A pilot multi-media EMR (equivalent to 10 teaching hours) is expected to be launched in September. It aims to provide key Chinese institutions that participated in the Wuhan workshop with hands-on guidance on public engagement of science.
