Sumario: | ABSTRACT Creativity is a key element for development and innovation in all areas of expertise domains. Years of misconceptions led to the belief that creativity is an ability only a few possess, particularly individuals from the arts. This assumption is far from the truth: we are all creative. We have different creative styles, but in all domains creativity takes part. Science is one of the richest fields where we can find it. This paper brings a reflection upon creativity in science, defining it, drawing similarities between the creative process and the scientific method, while arguing the importance of recognising creativity as a fundamental piece of past, present, and future scientific discoveries; but also in everyday scientific achievements. |
