Mastering the Art of Science Communication: Insights from Expert Panelists

Science Communications Seminar Series on May 22: Enhancing Your Research for Lay Audiences

On May 22, a Science Communications Seminar Series will be held, focusing on the topic of “Tips for Making Your Research Understandable to Broad Audiences”. The event will feature a panel discussion with PhD scientists who have transitioned into professional communicators. These experts will share best practices for effectively communicating scientific research to non-scientific audiences, providing valuable insights and strategies for making complex concepts accessible and engaging.

Imagine being at a social function or in line at a coffee shop when someone asks you to explain your research on a signal transduction pathway in an invertebrate model organism. It can be challenging to describe such complex concepts in a way that is easy to understand. However, this seminar provides an excellent opportunity to enhance your communication skills and learn from experts in the field.

The panelists for this event include Audrey Huang, PhD, Melissa Laitner, PhD, MPH, Vanessa McMains, PhD, and John Timmer, PhD. Each of these professionals has extensive experience in science communication and will offer valuable perspectives and advice during the panel discussion.
