Talk Title: Communicating Research to non-researchers

In today’s fast-paced information age, the ability to effectively communicate scientific findings is critical for fostering understanding, driving innovation, and influencing policy. This workshop is tailored for scientists/academia, offering practical insights into the art and science of scientific communication. Participants will explore strategies to make complex research accessible to diverse audiences, including policymakers, educators, and the general public. The session will also highlight techniques to enhance visibility and impact through media engagement and social media platforms. Attendees will gain actionable tools to amplify their voice, broaden their reach, and contribute meaningfully to public discourse on science.
