Dr. Donna Governor and colleagues recently published a study that suggests science fiction conventions offer an untapped platform for science engagement and learning. Survey results from 241 attendees revealed that non-STEM individuals who attended science track sessions reported higher interest in science than those who did not. Moreover, 66% of science track participants indicated they plan to apply what they learned in personal contexts. The findings point to sci-fi conventions as vital, accessible spaces for diverse science communication and education.
