Director of Scientific Mediation and Education
I am leading a great team of science communicators at Cité des sciences et de l’industrie and at the Palais de la découverte. I am particularly interested in the relation between citizenship and science, namely science and democracy interactions in the “Post-Truth” context. Prior to working full time in science communication, I was a teacher and a researcher in the field of bioenergetics. In 2000 I was invited to work for Ciência Viva, the Portuguese National Agency for Scientific and Technological Culture, where I was actively involved in developing a network of science centres. From 2010 till 2014, I was the Coordinator of PLACES, an Ecsite-led European project on local science communication policies that involved more than 23 EU countries. From 2014 till 2017, I worked as consultant for project development for major European science centres and museums and as a consultant for public engagement in the Middle East.
