Kenyon welcomes Kenneth Chang, science reporter from the New York Times, to share his experiences in writing about scientific research for non-scientific readers.
"Thirty years ago, I was a physics graduate student. I left without finishing my doctorate and switched careers. Instead of trying to do science, I now write about science at the New York Times. Science and equations are precise. Words are not. Writing about science is a series of tradeoffs, explaining the big picture for non-scientific readers while fuzzing the details. How well do I do? How well would you do?"
We're excited to invite you to join us on Friday, Sept. 13, to gain insights on writing, science and communicating scientific concepts from Chang. Enjoy a complimentary lunch in Hayes 216 from 11:45 a.m. to 12:15 p.m., followed by an engaging presentation in Hayes 211/213 at 12:10 p.m. Don't miss out on this opportunity! See you there!
