Communicating science is hard. Technical concepts and specialized language make it difficult to share science with a general audience. This can limit researchers, educators, and students in many ways, from explaining their work and interests to friends and family to engaging with the media and securing funding. The Sharing Your Science workshop is designed to help scientists overcome their expert blind spot, connect with their audience, and develop engagement strategies. Participants will be guided through the process of understanding non-expert perspectives, breaking down research into relatable elements, and maintaining audience interest. Whether it’s presenting research, teaching scientific concepts, or sharing topics of interest, this workshop will help scientists develop the necessary skills to communicate their message.
