To communicate with policymakers, scientists don't just need clear explanations, they need a clear understanding of the people they hope to reach. This workshop will provide strategic tools for understanding and meeting the scientific needs of policymakers. 

At this science communication workshop, communication experts Shenandoah Sowash and Ben Shouse will share how the United States Government Accountability Office engages with the U.S. Congress to provide nonpartisan, actionable information on science and technology. The duo will then help participants apply these principles to their own research and ideas.

Lunch will be provided!
