      Hello!

      That’s a very intriguing question! I think I would love to ask Richard Feynman what’s the best way to engage the public in my scientific work, as I believe this is one of the most important things a scientist can do!

      (Richard Feynman was a brilliant physicist, who in my opinion had a unique skill of being able to explain some of the most complicated ideas in the *simples* and most understandable ways. If you’re interested, some of his lectures that he gave for the BBC in the past are on Youtube!)

      Peter
