Today marks the official release of 'Strategic #SciComm.' We hope it'll be useful. Thanks to everyone who made it possible. And the work is just beginning. There's so much more interesting thinking, research, and real-world testing to do. amazon.com/Strategic-Science… @MSUComArtSci

I spent my spring teaching inclusive & strategic science communication to scientists across the country. It was a BLAST. If your organization, university, or conference is looking for scicomm-focused speakers, lmk. I'm booking my fall schedule now!

Still eager to hear from colleagues headed to #AAASmtgs in Denver who have stories to tell about how their organization is trying to be strategic when it comes to #scicomm/#publicengagement. I'd like to interview you for a research project (compensated). DM or email me, please!

Really happy to be involved with this; @colognav and @nielsmede deserve a great deal of recognition for their leadership in making this massive project happen.
How do people perceive #science and its role in society? Do they #trust scientists? 🧑🏾‍🔬 We did a global 67-country survey (n=71,417) to test this, working with 239 researchers from all continents – the #TISP #ManyLabs study. It’s now available as #preprint: osf.io/preprints/osf/6ay7s

We lost a towering figure and a generous soul with Jack McLeod’s passing. What an amazing and impactful career - a model of scholarly life for so many, and a mentor and inspiration to countless more. He will be missed, though his legacy is assured in the field and at the UW. 💜
Jack McLeod, Maier-Bascom Professor Emeritus and leader in political communication research, died January 28, 2024, at Agrace Hospice in Fitchburg, Wisconsin. He was 93. 🧵 buff.ly/48QRmuR
