Researchers suggest arts and crafts should be integrated into learning science
The Chemistry World team is a creative bunch. We’ve got a musician, a fiction writer, a woodworker and a cosplay enthusiast (I’ll let you guess who’s who). And, after two years of our In situ interviews, it’s clear that many of the top scientists in the world have a love of music or the arts, too. But does skill with a brush, lathe or guitar correlate with being nifty with science? According to research published in PNAS in January, it does.
