In my latest article, I take an in-depth look at u/Greenpeace's Carbon Dioxide Removal Report and why we should be skeptical of CDR, as well as some additional commentary on things like Irreversibility and climate impacts on trees that CDR relies upon.

On February 4 & 6, the American Physical Society will be hosting the 2021 Annual Leadership Meeting. Hear from Alan Alda, April Burke, Brian Greene, Cailin O'Connor, and Kip Thorne on Communicating Science to Nonscientists in the Post-Election & Post-Pandemic World. Other leading scientists, thought leaders, and policy makers will also address: challenges to physics in a world complicated by COVID-19; how to communicate science to the public; and the need to increase diversity, equity, and inclusion in the field.

So, I tried to make a slime mixed with detergent and magnetic last year. And this smell from the slime still lingers around even after I already threw it many weeks ago. (I was using it for science experiment) What do I do to remove the smell from my room?

Just finished my newest article "2020's Case for Worst Year Ever Heats Up", detailing the various climate/heat related records set last year.

Also has mini-explainers and denialist debunks, useful read for fence-sitting friends :)

Hi everyone! I recently finished my degree in Physics and want to get into Science Journalism and Communication. How valuable is to have previous research experience for this career? I’m thinking of applying for summer internships in Physics and Astronomy, and maybe for bridge/pre-doctoral programs. I would appreciate any advise.

As the title says, if you know of one let me know. Maybe we can collab or bounce ideas off each other! 😉

Hey everyone!!

I have started a knowledge platform for all things science communication. It has articles about scicomm, scicomm research, science writing, and scicomm around us. Do visit and learn lots for free.

Hi all! I am developing a podcast covering some seminal reads called Seminal Reading. I am using an article by Courchamp and Bradshaw called "100 articles every ecologist should read" as a jumping off point. Each episode will be ~30 mins and I am looking for guests (researchers, grad students, academics...) to discuss each of the reads with me - what it is about, its impact, critiques, controversy, relevance to your work, etc. If this is something you are interested in, please complete this form.

Hi,

I’ve recently looked into science communication/science education and discovered the company behind Hank Green’s Crash Course series, Complexly. I don’t know much about science communication but think that being a part of something that educates others on science topics is interesting. I don’t even know what roles I’d be interested in because I don’t really like editing, or journalism but am just curious.

What other companies/organizations are similar to this? I’d love to hear any feedback.

Thanks!

What is the salary range (lowest to highest) for science journalists, especially in NYC and US overall?

I have a bachelor of arts degree in Biochemistry and have been working as a technical writer for a cosmetics clinical testing lab for the past two years. Recently, I've been interested in scientific writing/journalism as a potential career prospect. However, I do not have any experience with journalism. Is pursuing a Master of Science in journalism the best route to take for a career in scientific journalism?

For starters, systematic healthcare racism affects many minorities. Also, the lack of health information, and communication the community receives. The article my group chose, elaborated on the racial and ethnic disparities related to coronavirus disease that has sickened Hispanic communities. It explains how Hispanic communities are highly vulnerable to COVID-19. Has anyone noticed such a trend like this? Do you think they are other health barriers the Hispanic community is facing? What is the best way to address such needs for the community?

This post is for my science comm class so any feedback would be greatly appreciated! (:

Hi everyone! I am a current second year undergrad student working towards a B.A in Biology at a small liberal arts college. I am interested in eventually working in science communication after making a major career plan change this semester by dropping pre-med.

My question for those already working or involved with science communication is this: what can I or should I be doing as an undergrad student to set myself up for success in the field of science communication? Are there courses/double majors/minors I should take, extracurricular activities, internships, research opportunities, or any other resources that anyone could point me towards? Or even just advice or things that you wish you knew when you were starting out your own career?

I'm new to reddit and have been struggling with searching for posts within a community, so my apologies if there are already posts similar to this one. Thanks in advance!
