UNLSciComm2015: A Symposium on Effective Science Communication

In our roles as students, teachers, researchers, and administrators, we often struggle to get the general public excited about science. This symposium brings together an unprecedented breadth of expertise from across the University of Nebraska, as well as Doane College and the University of Colorado. Join us, to hear about resources for outreach, tales of success and failure, innovative approaches to public engagement, and the social and psychological issues which inhibit these efforts.

The event will be held Sunday, October 4, at Nebraska Innovation Campus, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. There will be lunch and a drink social at the end. It will be an amazing opportunity to meet with all sorts of people interested in science communication and outreach to form new collaborations and friendships.

Sponsored by the School of Biological Sciences and the Materials Research Science and Engineering Center
