Science Communications
Earlier last month, students and faculty from Yale gathered in Kroon Hall for a day of science communication. The event was part of a larger effort at Yale to train scientists to communicate their work to a non-scientific audience. It featured a panel discussion moderated by FE&S Dean Indu Burke and workshops on writing press releases, developing social media, and engaging with journalists.
