The CBS Impact Exchange invites College of Biological Sciences and BioTechnology Institute graduate students and postdocs to participate in a new non-credit crash course in science communication. Practice the fundamentals of effective science communication and learn how to connect with diverse audiences. Participants will receive guidance and ultimately submit a piece for publication. Registration is first-come-first-serve and is limited to 20 participants. After that, participants will be placed on a waitlist.
This crash course has been postponed to Fall 2020.
Participants will:
- Learn about distinct styles of science communication and practice multiple communication modes.
- Practice engaging diverse audiences and ditch the single elevator pitch when asked, “What do you do?”
- Develop a critical lens to evaluate science communication and prepare a piece for online publication.
