To deliver the transition to a carbon-neutral economy, researchers must rethink funding, global cooperation and how they communicate with policymakers.
The pandemic and global environmental change are intimately intertwined at multiple levels, and this must be more clearly articulated to the public and in policy.
Caroline Wagner, author of 'The New Invisible College' and 'The Collaborative Era In Science', joins Toby Wardman of SAPEA to discuss the brave new world of cross-border science, and what, if anything, we can do about it.
Psychologist Ann-Marie Creaven regularly discusses her research on Ireland's most listened-to station.
A good communications strategy can get your research seen by decision makers, says Rebecca Fuoco.
Art has long been used as a means to communicate science. In ancient Greece, poetry was a powerful way of communicating about mathematics, astrology and the natural world. Fast forward 13 centuries, past the invention of the printing press which saw science communication flourish, to today, where artistic skills and science have come together once again - this time to explore the power of storytelling through comics. ERCcOMICS was the result of a search by the European Research Council to find an innovative and creative way to communicate ERC funded projects.
The Swiss Academies has published the first comprehensive report on science communication in Switzerland - and formulated 20 recommendations for improving it.
Six weeks ago, a reporter published what seemed to be a blockbuster story, one that, if true, would expose the greatest scandal in recent history.
How scientists are perfecting the art of boiling down their work into a short, sharp hit.
The science you can come across today can often appear to be full of contradictory claims.
This study investigates the development of open access (OA) to journal articles from authors affiliated with German universities and non-university research institutions in the period 2010-2018 and can serve as a baseline to assess the impact recent transformative agreements with major publishers will likely have on scholarly communication.
Helping scientists communicate: The CommKit is a collection of guides to successful scientific communication, written by MIT’s Department of Biological Engineering Communication Fellows.
There is no real evidence that the public has lost trust in science. So why are science-based recommendations often ignored?
This discussion paper describes and discusses the problems and the consequences of science disinformation in three areas of concern, namely climate change, vaccines and pandemics, and what we can do to increase awareness and minimize harm caused by the spread of disinformation.
This post explores how scholarly publishing should relate to scholarly communication. Ostensibly aligned, publishing and communication have diverged. Some processes involved in scholarly publishing are getting in the way of optimal scholarly communication, as the present pandemic amply reveals.
COVID-19 has transformed the world in the last 12 months. Communicating data has been a central part of the pandemic. Here are some of the most important lessons we can take from this period.
COVID-19 will be remembered for many things, including the pandemic that changed science communication, argues the Editor-in-Chief of Science journals.
Communication within the scientific community without twitter has become hard to imagine. It was only a matter of time, then, until someone started examining what makes a tweet scientific in itself. Dr Athanasios Mazarakis has examined this more closely and, in his guest article, reveals what he discovered when researching the scientific character of tweets.
A Nature poll shows that a year of online research conferences has brought big benefits, but blending them with in-person meetings in future will be a challenge.
What we don't know is awesome. Let us explain.
Many scientists are expecting another rise in infections. But this time the surge will be blunted by vaccines and, hopefully, widespread caution. By summer, Americans may be looking at a return to normal life.
OPERAS-P, an H2020 project coordinated by CNRS, is organising a workshop Future of scholarly communication, which will be dedicated to discussing the outcomes of the research undertaken in the project's Work Package 6 (Innovation).
The first of "The Open Notebooks" Science Journalism Master Classes, "How to Find an Angle for Any Science Story," launches. The free, hands-on classes are designed to help science writers at all levels of experience sharpen their skills.
Join the next call on open research communication projects to share and discuss emerging projects and significant updates for ongoing ones.
What image does the public in Germany have of science and research? The Science Barometer is dedicated to answering this question. We have taken a look at the results of the most recent survey from an Open Science perspective.
What better way to start 2021 than with a new science communication challenge! This month's challenge should help get your creative juices flowing… writing (or visualizing!) a time when creativity, imagination or subconscious thought was important to your scientific or artistic work!
Did COVID change the way the public, and the scientists, interpret and discuss scientific results? Statisticians think it looks like the same old problems prevail, only inflated.
Sharon Begley, whose science journalism career spanned 43 years at Newsweek, the Wall Street Journal, Reuters, and STAT, died Saturday at 64.
