SUMMARY:2024 ComSciCon-Flagship Conference 2024
DESCRIPTION:About\nComSciCon provides graduate student attendees with a one-of-a-kind opportunity to meet early career leaders in Science Communication\, learn from and interact with a remarkable group of invited experts\, and produce an original work communicating complex technical concepts from science and engineering to a new audience. \nAt ComSciCon’s Flagship Workshop\, participants build communication skills that scientists and other technical professionals need to express ideas to their peers\, experts in other fields\, and the general public. \nAmple time is allocated for networking with science communication experts and developing science outreach collaborations with fellow workshop participants. Workshop participants will produce an original piece of science writing and receive feedback from workshop attendees and professional science communicators\, including journalists\, authors\, public policy advocates\, educators\, and more. \nFounded in 2012 by graduate students at Harvard University\, MIT\, and the University of Colorado at Boulder\, nearly 3000 graduate students nationwide have already participated in ComSciCon programs\, including our annual Flagship Workshops and Franchise Workshops which have been started by ComSciCon alumni across the US and Canada. Attendees have founded new science communication organizations in collaboration with other students at the event\, published over 80 articles written at the conference in popular publications with national impact\, and formed lasting networks with our student alumni and invited experts. \nWe are extremely grateful to our sponsors who are making ComSciCon 2024 possible!

SUMMARY:Trust in Science: Understanding the Trends and Implications for Science Communication
DESCRIPTION:Recent survey data show declines in trust in science that mirror earlier trends for other institutions\, including journalism and government. New research is shedding additional light on those patterns and illuminating some of the mechanisms that underlie the aggregated trends. In this webinar\, researchers consider the differences between credibility\, confidence\, and trust; describe new empirical findings; and discuss the implications for how to communicate science in a complex information landscape. \nModerator: Mariette DiChristina\, Boston University \nPanelists: \nKatherine Ognyanova\, Rutgers University \nArthur Lupia\, University of Michigan \nLiz Hamel\, KFF \n \nTrust in Science: Understanding the Trends and Implications for Science Communication from The National Academies on Vimeo.

SUMMARY:Generative AI and the Implications for Science Communication
DESCRIPTION:New innovations in large language modeling and other generative artificial intelligence tools\, such as ChatGPT\, have spurred debate about their capacities\, risks\, and broader societal implications. The Standing Committee on Advancing Science Communication is hosting a public webinar to 1) explore what these technologies are\, how they work\, and how they may change the information landscape going forward; 2) consider positive innovations they could facilitate in science communication; and 3) discuss systemic limitations and risks\, as well as the broad ethical and social implications of these technologies. \nModerator:\nSandra González-Bailón\, Standing Committee Member and Carolyn Marvin Professor of Communication\, Annenberg School for Communication\, University of Pennsylvania \nPanelists: \nMelanie Mitchell\, Professor\, Santa Fe Institute\nSendhil Mullainathan\, Roman Family University Professor of Computation and Behavioral Science at Chicago Booth School of Business\, University of Chicago\nChirag Shah\, Professor\, Information School\, University of Washington – Seattle\nSophie Bushwick\, Technology Editor\, Scientific American \n \nGenerative AI and the Implications for Science Communication from The National Academies on Vimeo. \n

SUMMARY:SciPEP 2023: New Insights for Communicating Basic Science
DESCRIPTION:On July 25-26\, 2023\, “SciPEP 2023: New Insights for Communicating Basic Science” explored new research\, findings\, and implications for how to support scientists communicating about basic\, discovery science. Science communication scholars\, practitioners\, and trainers came together to discuss new insights and generated ideas and opportunities to advance basic science communication research and practice. \nTwo years earlier\, SciPEP’s “Communicating the Future: Engaging the Public in Basic Science” conference virtually gathered more than 1\,200 people from 60 countries to explore what we know – and don’t know – about basic science communication. The sheer magnitude of the conference (and deep\, rich discussions there and since) reinforced that this is what the community is hungry for: evidence-based tools and resources to better equip scientists and professional communicators for basic science communication. A detailed summary of the 2021 conference and video recordings are available for reference. Also\, the SciPEP team published “Charting a Path for Public Engagement in Basic Science: A Prospectus\,” to summarize key questions that arose from the 2021 conference and a framework for addressing those questions. \nThe SciPEP team has identified (and commissioned) new research\, and convened or facilitated conversations\, that have deepened our understanding of key gaps and refined the questions identified during the 2021 conference. \nAttendees of SciPEP 2023 learned more about these findings\, connected with others to discuss new insights\, and helped plan the next steps for our community.
