Promoting Science Accessibility: A Symposium! By early-career GC STEM students!
Interested in learning how to successfully communicate your research to different audiences? Then look no further than Promoting Science Accessibility: A Symposium. Presenters will be GC STEM students from 4 disciplines, representing 5 CUNY campuses, talking about their research on 3 different levels: an oral presentation aimed at a general audience, an oral presentation aimed at an audience of their peers, and a poster-style presentation where they will be able to discuss their research one-on-one with attendees.
Graduate Center Science Communication Fellows Melina Giakoumis and Alyssa Martin will also speak about the new GC Science Communication Toolkit, how they curated it, and how to use it – giving all attendees the best information on how to communicate your research to every audience!
This event is organized and sponsored by the new student-led group, CUNYSciCom, with assistance from the GC Science Communications Academy and the Doctoral and Graduate Students’ Council. The event will be held on June 18th, from 1-6 pm.
