Definición

  • The expression visible scientist is used to refer to scientists with particular “visibility” outside specialist circles and who may be familiar to the general public. According to Rae Goodell's seminal 1977 study on this topic, the emergence of visible scientists in the second half of the 20th century reflected not only a quantitative increase in their number but also a shift in the nature of their popularity.
