Abstract: | Scientific information in the media has become increasingly important in the relationship between life science and society. Though it is often said that there are some gaps between life science researchers and the media, life science researchers' attitudes towards the way media handles life science information were unclear in Japan. In this study, we examined Japanese life science researchers' attitudes towards life science information in the media. Using a semi-structured interview format, we interviewed 64 Japanese front-line life science researchers. Main topics were as follows: (1) role for life science researchers in the information transmission to society, (2) quality of life science information in the media, (3) interactions with the media. Our results have suggested that from the Japanese life science researchers' points of view, there were some thorny issues in the relationship between life science researchers and the media. |
