Spell your Science: An introduction to communication for scientists

Spell Your Science is a new series of workshops offered to early career scientists at McGill who would like to learn the basics of better communicating their science to a non-expert audience. 

4 half day workshops: August 8th, 15th, 22nd, 29th 2018. 

Each workshop will consist in an introductory lecture from a science communication expert followed by a group practise session. Participants will be expected to write a peer-reviewed blogpost by the last session. The blogposts will then be posted on our McGill blog page, which will be advertised. Program below.
