Education and Public Engagement
Engaging with the Community
Education and Public Engagement is an integral part of APC鈥檚 strategy. It is informed by research on public perception and understanding of microbiome science and by government policy. The goals of our EPE programme are to foster an awareness and interest in microbiome science among the general public, including schools and young people, and to train APC researchers to effectively communicate their research to non-specialist audiences.
Overview of APC Education and Public Engagement
APC researchers engage with the community through three core programmes: Public Engagement | Education | Engaged Research
