This workshop is designed to cultivate and enhance science communication skills. It offers interactive lectures, discussion sessions, and hands-on exercises to equip participants with the abilities needed to effectively convey scientific concepts to a lay audience. It focuses on core communication skills: writing, visualization, and social media outreach.
The workshop will be split into two parts:
• Basic skills acquisition (days 1 and 2): Introducing participants to different types of scientific writing, distinctions between academic and lay audience writing, and team formation.
• Extending and complementing the skills acquired (days 3 and 4): Covering scientific illustration, social media platforms for science communication, and participant presentations.

The main objective is to inspire and motivate junior researchers to actively engage in science communication, emphasizing the significance of science communication for society. Additionally, this workshop will facilitate the establishment of a dynamic network of young researchers who are interested in science communication. This network will provide a platform for knowledge-sharing, collaboration, and continuous growth in science communication endeavours. We hope that through such a network of enthusiastic science communicators, we can also disseminate important research that takes place in UZH and ETHZ.
