The Pursuit of Impact

In this episode of ‘Found in Translation’, we discuss academia’s pursuit of impact and the growing demand for researchers to engage effectively in conversation with a broader audience. How does the academic community respond to this demand? And what happens to research outputs when communicated to broader society in pursuit of impact? I ask senior business writer and journalist from the Financial times, Andrew Hill, how he as a journalist engages with academic research in his communication with broader society. I also ask Assistant Professor Pedro Monteiro from CBS about his experience with journalism as a vehicle for transmitting his research to a broader audience.
