Two-way communication between expert scientists and their audience

Each week, a materials or nanoscientist ran the account and talked directly with its followers: answering questions, taking feedback, and opening up their research in real time.

About the project

RealSci_Nano was a rotation curation account. Each week, a new materials or nanoscientist took over the account and shared their research, their life in the lab, and their questions. It ran alongside the Under the Microscope podcast, and many curators were also podcast guests.

In 2024 I closed shop on Twitter/X and moved to Bluesky, so the podcast and the rotation account now sit under one name: Under the Microscope.
