Science Communication for Researchers
When
-
In this workshop, you will learn how to tailor your research for different audiences. It will provide you with skills to present your work for job interviews in academia and industry. You will also learn how to apply these communication skills to the public and have the opportunity to practice with feedback from trained experts in science communication. All JILAns are welcome to attend.
The workshop is two hours total and will be offered twice:
Option 1: Wednesday November 12, 10am-12pm in JILA X325
Option 2: Thursday November 13, 2-4pm in JILA X317
The Physics Frontiers Centers (PFC) program supports university-based centers and institutes where the collective efforts of a larger group of individuals can enable transformational advances in the most promising research areas. The program is designed to foster major breakthroughs at the intellectual frontiers of physics by providing needed resources such as combinations of talents, skills, disciplines, and/or specialized infrastructure, not usually available to individual investigators or small groups, in an environment in which the collective efforts of the larger group can be shown to be seminal to promoting significant progress in the science and the education of students. PFCs also include creative, substantive activities aimed at enhancing education, broadening participation of traditionally underrepresented groups, and outreach to the scientific community and general public.
