Abstract:
"Science isn't done until it's been communicated." (Sir Mark Walport, U.K. Government Chief Scientific Advisor) Not just to your peers, but to as many people as possible! (Lisa Wald, GHSC SciComm)

SciComm can help with that! There are many ways we can help you extend the reach of your research to more audiences, both internal and external. That's good both for you and for those who might benefit or learn from your work. In this brief seminar you'll learn the many ways we can "market" your research and accomplishments within the USGS and to a broader online audience. The best part is that it requires a small effort on your part, yet these strategies can have a big impact. Our Office of Communications and Publishing (OCAP) POC, Heidi Koontz, will also join us to talk about the new developments in OCAP and how OCAP can amplify your science too.
