How can poetry explore and share academic research with the public?

Rebekah King speaks with David Cain and researchers at the University of Cambridge about their participation in the Creative Encounters Words programme.

Listen to researchers Dr Catherine Merrick (Senior Lecturer
Pathology, Biological Sciences), Anne Thomas (Newnham College & Plant Sciences) and Mona Jebril (Research Fellow, Centre for Business Research) read their poems and talk about how poetry has enabled them to think differently about the research.

The Words programme set out to look at and share research through poetry. Together with the poetry and public engagement professional, David Cain, the researchers explored the vast world of poetry, its different formats to bring out the poetry that lay behind their research for performance and for publication.

You can discover more about the Words programme, and read all the poems from 2022, at the Words website.
