This summer I interviewed 15 #scicomm experts to get their take on sharing science with the public in a variety of ways. These interviews were released as a special podcast series, "Hot SciComm Summer": opinionsciencepodcast.com/hot-scicomm-summer
We tend to emphasize *social science* communication because that’s my background, but the series draws broadly on science communication in general.
In this video, I recap some of my favorite insights that I came away with from these interviews. I tried to be brief, but there was too much good stuff to draw on! Be sure to listen to the full interviews for event more.
