Abstract

Various goals can be enumerated for the cause of publicizing science.  In this talk, from the perspective of a researcher based in Iran, I will outline what  I expect from publicizing science to achieve in order to facilitate  training the next generation of Iranian scientists. I will show why and how science publicizing in Iran should differ from that in developed countries. My particular attention will be on misperception of general public about the nature of modern science and the culture of scientists. I will then comment on the importance of

attention to gender and linguistic issues in a multi-lingual country such as ours.
