In this episode, Chanapa recounts how being the child of Thai imigrants while growing up with her own rare health condition shaped her commitment to bridging the gap between scientists, journalists, and the public.
From explaining complex research to countering misinformation, her work reminds us that trust in science comes down to the people doing the communicating.

-
Why clear communication can literally save lives.

What it takes to serve the public when scrutiny and stakes are at their highest.
