Some ideas totake away • Web 2.0, Social Networking, Communicating Research – is just an attitude • There is a paramount task yet in involving and motivating (good) researchers, research groups and academic units in communicating (well!) Research and Science. • Dissemination of Research and Public Outreach is hindered by current issues. • There is a high pressure (Publish of Perish, Transfer or Die, etc.) that does not free time enough to get involved in Public Outreach and Dissemination activities • A proper system of Rewards could be established to catalyze and promote Science and Research communication. • Thank you very much for your attention!
