Biobio Junior Section actively participates in our umbrella organization's, FEBS Junior section, events.

This talk is part of a monthly online talk series organised by the FEBS Junior Section focusing on career or research aspects. The speaker for this month's event is Dr Marko Košiček, from the Ruđer Bošković Institute. Marko Košiček is the coordinator of Science Popularization at the Ruđer Bošković Institute in Zagreb and he has received multiple science popularization awards for his work (e.g. the State Award for Popularisation and Promotion of Science in 2014). In this talk he will share what he learned while moving from neuroscience and biochemistry into science communication and public engagement.
