A lot of people view science as dull or boring, and I think the stance we take, using humour, not taking ourselves too seriously... I think people enjoy that. I think it's quite refreshing. Elise Andrew boredullenjoy Change image and share on social
I'm very lucky because people send me a lot of stuff and post cool articles and pictures on my wall, which does make life a lot easier for me. When we were at 60,000 or 100,000 'likes,' I was still having to source the content myself, and I was constantly trolling the Internet, whereas now things are sent to me, which does make it a lot easier.

People in general romanticize nature, and they make it out to be something that it isn't because humans are so awful.

Often, some people dress something up to make it sound scientific, use scientific words, call themselves doctor something-or-other, and then you look them up, and they're trying to make it sound like something it's not. There's this entire field that's adding the word 'quantum' to everything. It doesn't even make sense in that context. Elise Andrew addcallcontext share on social
Sometimes I worry that science communication is just preaching to the choir, speaking to the converted. Social media gives us an amazing opportunity to reach new people. Elise Andrew amazechoircommunication Change image and share on social
I don't really understand why people are so interested in me, personally. I'm just a curator. I'm just telling people things I think are cool. Elise Andrew coolcuratorinterest Change image and share on social
