The article highlights a film series, Tools of Science, that underscores the importance of creativity as an essential tool for addressing global challenges. RCEI Affiliates, Kay Bidle, Janice McDonnell, and Kim Thamatrakoln have devoted more than a decade to producing the Tools series. The series emphasizes how creativity can inspire innovative solutions, foster collaboration, and drive positive change across various sectors. “We want to show the critical linkage between creativity, the generation of ideas and the scientific process,” said Kay Bidle. “They are all integral.
