Part of the problem, he says, ?is that ?many people don’t interact with
scientists regularly and see researchers as “weird.” To combat those
stereotypes, he and others at Berkeley are organizing outings to
community events, like farmers markets, to talk to their neighbors in
informal settings about the work they do. He will be attending the march
in San Francisco.
