Luís Azevedo Rodrigues, director of the Centro Ciência Viva de Lagos, is from today until Sunday, the 12th, at Expolab, in the Azores, teaching how to make a “Digital Approach” to science communication.

The paleontologist based in Lagos will promote training in Science Communication and Digital Technologies, which will culminate with the lecture “Dinosaurs: New Techniques, Old Myths”.

This is an «innovative collaboration» with Expolab – Centro Ciência Viva dos Açores, which «aims to explore the frontiers of scientific dissemination and digital education, integrated into the national initiative “Hoje Quem Manda Sou Eu”», according to the CCV lacobrigense.
