In this essay, I question what happens to our understanding of the public communication of science when it is embodied by scientists who subvert traditional gender roles. I argue that communicative practices directed toward wider publics have traditionally been framed by certain feminized values of care, which subordinates these practices to androcentric ideals of expert knowledge production. Drawing on contemporary feminist critiques of science, I analyze examples of a Colombian trans woman scientist's practices of knowledge communication via online platforms. This analysis allows me to propose that other forms of public communication of science are possible. In particular, I suggest that these practices can be framed by an ethos of care through which science and scientists become with publics in more accountable and situated ways.
