Abstract: Science matters to us - at 3M we care about science. We wanted to understand the public’s perception around science so we conducted a global third party study called the ‘3M State of Science Index’ and what we found is that science is underappreciated, invisible and taken-for-granted. People don’t seem to understand or acknowledge the role of science in their daily lives but have huge expectations for what it should deliver in the future. It is clear science needs advocates! Last year, Jayshree was appointed as 3M’s first-ever Chief Science Advocate and she is using her scientific knowledge, technical expertise and professional experience to advance science and communicate the importance and benefits of science in everyday life, helping to make science more accessible and foster a new generation of scientists and science advocates. She will be sharing the results of the survey, what 3M is doing about it and a call for action for all of us!
