Communication: talk to peers and the general public

Posted by Jack Leeming | Categories: Collaboration, Communication, CV, Multimedia, Perspectives, PhD, Podcast, Social media

Communication: talk to peers and the general public

As scientists, our work is often driven by data collection and results. But a key step in the scientific process, and one that increases the value of our findings, is the effective communication of our investigative processes and results. Science communication is not only important within our fields for the advancement of our disciplines – communication to other audiences also influences the public perception and credibility of scientists and the work we do.  Read more

The postdoc series: The podcast

Posted by Julie Gould | Categories: Podcast, Postdoc

The postdoc series: The podcast

At the end of 2014, two papers were released reviewing the postdoctoral research space and suggesting ways to improve it. The first, Shaping the future of research, is a paper written by postdocs themselves and gives their point of view based the Future of Research symposium that they held in Boston in October 2014. The symposium brought together early career researchers to discuss (and maybe complain a little about) the postdoc part of the academic career track. We’ve mentioned it in part 3 of the postdoc series: The plight of the postdoc.  Read more
