Remember the “Science: It’s a Girl Thing” European Commission fiasco? Well Curt Rice has made lemons from lemonade. For a good example of using crowdsourcing, read Curt’s rundown here. Of course, serendipity, in the form of having a Nobel Laureate reading your tweets, really helps get the ball moving…
Thanks for helping to spread the word. It was so fun to see how enthusiastic the participants were, and how excited the winners were. And, yes indeed, a laureate here, a laureate there, and pretty soon, you’re doin’ science!
