Scientific storytelling: an interview with Prof. Enrico Coen

Published: June 19, 2019, 4:30 p.m.

Storytelling facilitated both the emergence of the scientific discipline and the evolution of human intelligence. At least, that's what Prof. Enrico Coen argues. A former President of the genetics society, Prof. Coen, from the John Innes Centre, has two articles in the recent Heredity Special issue commemorating 100 years of The Genetics Society. In the first, he creatively recounts the rise of Homo geneticus, and in the second he delves into the history and importance of human storytelling. Tune in to hear a grand tale of genetics and discover how your research could benefit from a little more storytelling.
