To bring this spirit of adventure closer to the public, EMBL\u2019s public engagement specialists and TREC sampling teams have created a game inspired by the Game of the Goose, one of the first commercially manufactured board games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The new game, called \u2018Run, Scientist, Run\u2019, addresses a specific need: explaining the work of scientists collecting samples in the field \u2013 such as those participating in the EMBL-led TREC expedition \u2013 to curious onlookers. Taking the form of a giant game board, nine metres long and eight metres across, \u2018Run, Scientist, Run\u2019 is a race where the first player to reach the end wins. During the game, participants navigate various challenges and triumphs usually faced by scientists during an expedition. As players roll the dice and move across the board, they encounter obstacles and opportunities that mirror real-life scenarios scientists encounter in the field. From unpredictable weather conditions to unexpected encounters with marine life, each turn offers a glimpse into the dynamic world of coastal ecology research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choosing a game as a strategy to engage the public with science is rooted in communication and learning research. Play makes complex concepts accessible and enjoyable, demystifying scientific ideas and fostering curiosity. The social aspects of play, such as competitiveness and overcoming challenges, enhance engagement and motivation. From this perspective, \u2018Run Scientist Run\u2019 builds community and stimulates discussion, transforming learning into an active and enjoyable experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"vf-figure wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"390\" class=\"vf-figure__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RSR-Kotor-promenade.jpeg\" alt=\"Close to the sea, a group of young people and families play a life-size game using dice.\n\" class=\"wp-image-69315\" style=\"width:704px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RSR-Kotor-promenade.jpeg 640w, https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/RSR-Kotor-promenade-300x183.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><figcaption class=\"vf-figure__caption\">Young participants and families play &#8216;Run, Scientist, Run!&#8217;  on the city promenade in Kotor, Montenegro. Credit: Michele Fontana\/EMBL<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The project has its roots in ideas for a special flyer to explain the TREC expedition and sampling processes. The flyer presented an opportunity to include a game that highlights the everyday challenges of fieldwork, emphasising the human aspect of contemporary research. At the time, EMBL\u2019s Science Education and Public Engagement (SEPE) team had long been considering a game to engage the public with the TREC expedition, as an open activity with broad appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All these inputs came organically together, and a TREC-focused game was developed, taking inspiration from the \u2018Game of the Goose\u2019, to be placed on the flyer as well as offered in public spaces across Europe. The public response has been very positive, especially for the life-size version. The game has been featured in public spaces in Barcelona, Naples, Pisa, Split, and Kotor, always sparking curiosity, laughter, and questions about the TREC expedition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While some logistical challenges have arisen due to the game&#8217;s large size (72 square metres), thanks to dedicated local partners, it has been presented in prime locations like the Magic Fountain in Barcelona and the Largo Ciro Menotti in Pisa. The latter, located near a statue of Galileo Galilei, uniquely engaged people in the shadow of a man who devoted his life to making research accessible to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"vf-figure wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"939\" height=\"597\" class=\"vf-figure__image\" src=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pisa.png\" alt=\"A public square in Italy, with a bronze statue of Galileo Galilei and a life size board game visible behind it.\n\" class=\"wp-image-69317\" style=\"width:780px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pisa.png 939w, https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pisa-300x191.png 300w, https:\/\/www.embl.org\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Pisa-768x488.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 939px) 100vw, 939px\" \/><figcaption class=\"vf-figure__caption\">TREC volunteers engage the public in Pisa (Italy), in the shadow of a statue of Galileo Galilei.

Through this activity, researchers are breaking down barriers and inviting everyone to join the scientific adventure. So, let\u2019s roll the dice and experience the thrill of exploration like never before.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A life-size game inspired by the Traversing European
