In this chapter we describe the communication strategy that was developed for the ARS project, how this strategy was implemented in different media and in-person events, and how we assessed the communication results. In Sect. 1 we present the challenges involved in the communication of complex scientific subjects, and in Sect. 2 we address the specific problems of communicating autonomous medical robotics, which would, eventually, affect the lives of people attending our seminars. In Sect. 3 we present the specific elements of the ARS project, such as logo, project identity, audiences and communication channels. Section 4 describes the on-line communication of the ARS project, based on giving a “face” to the scientific concepts, by asking the researchers involved to record brief statements about their work. Section 5 describes the in-person activities, consisting of seminars and short courses, workshops and one-to-one discussions. Finally, Sect. 6 discusses the outcomes of the communication in terms of qualitative and quantitative assessments, and the important lesson learned while interacting with the audiences.

摘要

In this chapter we describe the communication strategy that was developed for the ARS project, how this strategy was implemented in different media and in-person events, and how we assessed the communication results. In Sect. 1 we present the challenges involved in the communication of complex scientific subjects, and in Sect. 2 we address the specific problems of communicating autonomous medical robotics, which would, eventually, affect the lives of people attending our seminars. In Sect. 3 we present the specific elements of the ARS project, such as logo, project identity, audiences and communication channels. Section 4 describes the on-line communication of the ARS project, based on giving a “face” to the scientific concepts, by asking the researchers involved to record brief statements about their work. Section 5 describes the in-person activities, consisting of seminars and short courses, workshops and one-to-one discussions. Finally, Sect. 6 discusses the outcomes of the communication in terms of qualitative and quantitative assessments, and the important lesson learned while interacting with the audiences.
