Podcasts: A Revolution in Science Communication

This webinar is free and open to the public thanks to the generous support of the Kavli Foundation and the American Chemical Society.

Increasingly, scientists are recognizing a heightened need to share their work effectively and engage others through narrative. Podcasts, one of several non-traditional content formats, can offer scientists a platform to build trust and engage others through a conversational, multimedia-friendly format. Thanks to their ease and flexibility, podcasts have exploded in popularity among scientists and others. They offer an interesting, engaging, and audience-friendly way to share science using the power of the human voice in all of its diversity.

During this webinar, the Alda Center will speak with three leading science communication podcast hosts about what goes into building an effective podcast. Speakers include Alie Ward, host of Ologies podcast; Anne Chisa, host of the Root of the Science podcast; and Oné R. Pagán, host of The Bald Scientist blog and podcast.
