“
Advancing canine science isn’t just about understanding dogs better – it’s about unlocking the secrets of their behaviour, health, and emotions to enrich the lives of both canines and humans.”

We support
science communication
At Dogs and Science, we believe that science becomes truly impactful when it’s shared and understood by a broader audience.
We’re passionate about transforming complex research into accessible and engaging content for everyone. Beyond our own efforts, we actively support fellow researchers in communicating their findings effectively.
Recently, we received funding to host a workshop on effective science communication for the Animal Welfare Research Network (www.awrn.co.uk). The event featured exceptional speakers who delved into the importance, strategies, motivations, and methods of science communication. The workshop was met with great enthusiasm, attracting over 100 registered participants.
Our commitment to science communication reflects our mission to bridge the gap between research and real-world application, ensuring that valuable insights reach those who can use them to make a meaningful difference in the world.
