SNIP from BBC:
"Science meets shape-throwing in 'Dance your PhD' contest
You might be able to explain your "insights into oral chemesthetic perception" to a group of chemistry professors - but can you dance it?

Dr. Sulo Roukka from the University of Helsinki can and he's won a prize to prove it.

The Dance your PhD competition was founded in 2008 aims to make complex research engaging through movement and art.
We've compiled some of the 2025 winning entries for you to take a look at."

So it's an attempt to get a huge demographic interesting in science and education.
... and that demographic would be today's "too cool for school" young people.

BRILLIANT!
Kudos to Finland.
I'm not surprised Finlanders are once again ranked as the happiest people of all countries ... for eight years in a row!

The European country named the world’s happiest for the eighth year running

The World Happiness Report is yet again dominated by Nordic countries

Why oh why can't America learn from the Nordic countries?

I’m passing this onto DD.
It’s a pretty cool concept.
Not sure how she can “dance” her Hepatitis C vaccine work but she can also write and perform music. Looks like the wee nieces might be called upon.

Cute idea! ... home made music and little nieces .. get ready for YT fame and fortune.

Now it's brainstorm time. Fun fun fun.

... Maybe the video could be some of the ways that Hep C spreads.

Maybe use the good guy vs. bad guy thing.
Example: two police detectives interviewing a suspect.

An effective but inexpensive set could be a tiny drab empty small room with only chairs, and a table under a single harsh light.
And you could also use that one-way "observation mirror" with a room on each side with different actors acting out each side of the same point.








The Dr. is the good guy/gal but the, for example, short order cook not washing his hands after using the restroom is the bad guy.

To maximize clicks and sharing, I'd choose the good and the bad actors' gender, race, and age carefully.

For example, a black man being the criminal would enforce stereotypes.
That's not PC today.
I suspect many would stop watching it right then ... or both cops being white males.
Many would not only stop watching, but not share the video with friends out of fear of being cancelled.

Good bad right or wrong, this will get more clicks.
