How can you expand the impact of your research?
Engaging with journalists can improve the coverage of science in the media and increase public understanding about science. The University of Washington's Conservation of Living Systems (CLS) program is offering a Science Communication and the Media course to prepare senior graduate students with hands-on training and the skills to deliver clear, compelling messages about their work to journalists and the public. The course will culminate in an all-day workshop with some of the nation's leading journalists who will offer their insights and expert advice.
