      Hello,

      My field is very new and is still being developed, therefore it is met with some scepticism at times. However once my research and method has been explained properly, people are generally positive. The majority of people acknowledge climate change as one of our biggest threats, but most people’s behaviour doesn’t align with this. It’s my job to change that 🙂

      Hey,
      The response to the research published has been good, although the publications we have released are quite specialised to the field we work in. The work we produce for others may get a bigger response.

      Sorry I can not give you a more concise answer and I hope this is some way answers your question

      The best response I had after publishing a paper was getting invited to the World Health Organization in Switzerland to help them change their policy on vaccination. Another cool response has been my findings being discussed in the media and used to update wikipedia. See if you can spot some of my work in the references in this wikipedia page.

      Hello!
      I have got very positive responses so far in my research field. My scientific results have been published and cited by other scientists, meaning that they recognise my work as valuable. 🙂
