SUMMARY:Public Communication of Science panel
DESCRIPTION:To kick off the weekend workshop COMM5660\, there is a panel of professionals who communicate science with various publics\, in many forms. \nJoin a panel of speakers to be inspired about how as a graduate student or postdoc you could take advantage of opportunities to engage in communication of your research\, science in general\, and best of all\, share your passion with public audiences! Q&A and informal discussion will follow. \nLearn about the wide range of opportunities for incorporating public engagement and science communication in your professional activities. Speakers will share how they got into science communication\, reasons why they continue to do so\, opportunities and challenges integrating communication activities as a doctoral student or postdoc. The panelists will also share specific skill to work on that are useful elsewhere\, and goals they have for future science communication activities. There will be opportunities to ask questions of the panelists and informal discussion will follow. \nThis public panel session kicks off the COMM5660 weekend 1 credit workshop led by Bruce Lewenstein\, Professor of Science Communication and Cornell Ombuds. \nPanelists\n \nSteve Strogatz\, Winokur Distinguished Professor of Public Understanding of Science and Mathematics \nLisa Kaltenegger\, Associate Professor of Astronomy and Director\, Carl Sagan Institute \nMichelle Kortenaar from the Sciencenter \nFacundo Torres\, PhD student in microbiology\, science rapper \nAbout COMM 5660\nStarting with an in-person public panel discussion on Opportunities for Public Communication of Science\, this weekend workshop trains researchers in the sciences (including natural sciences\, engineering\, experimental social sciences\, etc.) to communicate effectively with nonscientists such as policy makers\, political stakeholders\, the media\, and the general public.

This was an excellent crash course on science communication and forced me to think through how the public receives and perceives scientific news and how I could best communicate my own work to the public without over complicating it.”-Felicity Emerson\, Biomedical and Biological Sciences \nSupported by Cornell’s Department of Communication and Careers Beyond Academia in the Graduate School.
