This nanocourse offers the opportunity to learn the basics of science writing for general audiences through small group discussions and interactive workshops. Additionally, this course will include a panel of expert science writers from PBS NOVA, STAT, Addgene, and more to answer questions and offer advice for any scientist hoping to better communicate his or her<br>research and more. Topics will include the basics of science writing, navigating interviews, and effectively engaging a diverse array of audiences through various forms of media.</p><p>	All are welcome to attend the first session.<br>Register for the second session at <a data-url="/nanosandothercourses.hms.harvard.edu/node/431" href="internal:/nanosandothercourses.hms.harvard.edu/node/431" target="_blank" title="">nanosandothercourses.hms.harvard.edu/node/431</a>.
