ROME (ITALPRESS) – Scientific outreach in medicine makes it possible to make reliable, up-to-date information on health, new discoveries and research advances accessible to the general public. In an era characterized by the rapid dissemination of often unverified news, science journalists have a responsibility to translate complex concepts into clear, accurate and understandable language.
Among different media, radio occupies a unique space and allows authoritative information to be disseminated in a direct and engaging way. Radio “is magnificent, always renewing itself. In my opinion it ‘hooks’ more” than television, “somehow accompanies” the listener and “allows us to become familiar.” This was said by Nicoletta Carbone, journalist and host of Obiettivo Salute on Radio24, interviewed by Marco Klinger for Medicina Top, a TV format of the Italpress news agency.
Throughout his career he has interviewed many doctors, scientists, and researchers with whom “a collaboration is created” that “helps me get” to listeners and “keep facts well separated from opinions.” On the show, “I don’t use ‘medicalese,’ I hear the guests a little bit first and we try to get an understanding: then there are some interviews that go better and some that go worse, inevitably.”
Nowadays, “there is knowledge that allows us to know well the pathophysiology of diseases, we are moving toward personalized medicine that is not only about diagnoses, but also about the environment and the patient,” he stressed. The interview missing from his long list of guests? “Definitely the next one.” Instead, what would she like to do when she grows up? “To be little again and remember that 8-year-old girl who wanted to talk to someone. I like to reach people, I try to do a good job” talking “about health and prevention, three times a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year.”
