Description

In this episode of Body Banter, Dr. Adam Taylor joins us to talk about his research on science communication and the general population's understanding of basic anatomy knowledge—or lack thereof. Adam shares how he collaborated with a citizen science group to collect survey data from over 80,000 participants worldwide, and how his research became "Buzzfeed famous". We talk about the importance of health literacy for understanding the "scientific kit" that is our own body, how this has implications for being able to communicate with healthcare professionals and advocate for our own health, and what the next steps are to improve global health literacy as educators and communicators.
