Organismic & Evolutionary Biol 697K - ST-Science Communication

This course is designed to give graduate students in the life sciences experience in communicating science to audiences outside their academic field. Lectures will provide opportunities for science communication and effective ways of engaging non-scientific audiences. Students will give brief oral popular-science presentations, participate in discussions about science communication, write and peer-review other students' popular science articles, and work in groups to propose potential new outreach programs.

Open to graduate students in Molecular & Cellular Biology, Organismic & Evolutionary Biology, Neuroscience & Behavior, and Plant Biology.
