Title of Talk: Scientific Method and Scientific Discourse
Dr. Georgescu will overview the evolution of the scientific method through Jim Gray’s four paradigms and discuss how the scientific discourse has not changed much. She will argue that a fifth paradigm is imminent, that scientists are telling increasingly complex narratives to different audiences and hence it’s important to think about new forms of the scientific discourse.
