Summer School on Science Communication
Why should scientists engage with the public? How do research topics get into the media? What is good science communication? What is bad practice? And what formats and channels are recommended for scientists to communicate directly with a lay audience? Young professionals from the sciences and the humanities as well as beginners in communication can tackle these and other questions with our science communication experts – sign up now for our first Summer School on Science Communication jointly offered by HR Development and Bonn Graduate Center.
