What is the #MySciComm Series?

#MySciComm explores the personal and professional journeys of science communicators, including the joys, struggles, and helpful resources that surfaced along their way.

#MySciComm also showcases the wide range of types of SciComm that people can do, from photography and illustration to serving as an institutional press officer, doing public engagement research, and so much more.

SciComm is an emerging profession, and there are not only a lot of ways of doing SciComm, but a lot of ways of getting into it. Our #MySciComm series highlights some of the possibilities.

Planning for next year

Your Communication & Engagement Section is looking ahead, and we’d love your help. Please let us know:

What kinds of sessions would you like to see at the next annual meeting? Hearing your ideas will help us hone our focus for the next conference.
Do you want to organize a session about your particular research area? We’d love to connect you with collaborators, potential sponsors, and the relevant folks at ESA to help you get a session proposal submitted.
Have an idea but just need a boost? We’re happy to brainstorm and/or or share examples of successful session proposals we’ve submitted in past years.

Session proposal deadlines for 2018 have passed. We will post deadlines and links for 2019 once ESA releases that information.
