Abstract

NSF believes science is important and essential—and that communicating it is crucial…You can show them why they should care about your science and the scientific perspective, helping lead to greater public understanding of the value of NSF‐funded research.

Today’s journalists are required to do it all… Jack-of-all media trades. Scientists need to learn similar skills. Communicate your own science to nonexperts.
