Science communication has… a communication problem. There is a whole field of research on strategies for and the impact of science communication, but this information from science communication researchers often does not reach science communication practitioners. We at The Science Basement and the International Society for the Advancement of Science Communication want to help fix that!
Join us for a monthly journal club, where we (science communication practitioners and researchers) will read articles from the field of science communication research. The host of the journal club will give a short presentation on the article, followed by discussion- so don’t despair if you didn’t have time to read the whole thing.
Fill out the registration form to get the zoom link, sent 1 day before the event. See you there!
