On Monday 22 November 2021, the Alliance Française in Melbourne, with the support of AFRAN members, hosted a fascinating online roundtable with five bilingual French scientists and PhD students. The theme of the discussion was:
The impact of bilingualism on science and scientific careers.
Two panellists were AFRAN members!
Wach the video of the roundtable on the Alliance Française in Melbourne's website, to discover the panellists' experiences (and some amusing anecdotes) on working in the domain of science, the benefits of being bi-lingual, how speaking a second language has boosted their careers and how languages shape the way we see the world and do research.
