Pablo Jáuregui has been one of the pioneers of science journalism in Spain. He has been writing for many years about science in one of the most widely read media in Spanish, El Mundo. He praises the work done by science bloggers, but insists that there is a difference between their work and that of the journalists. For him they are complementary but not substitutes. In “100XCIENCIA” he will be able to share this view with science and specialized communicators. This will take place in La Palma from 7th to 9th October.Advertised on
