Welcome to MiSciComm!

Vision:

We are a student organization dedicated to improving the science communication abilities of graduate students and postdocs, improving public understanding of science, and advocating for science communication as a field. We seek to connect scientists to the public to promote mutually beneficial communication.

Mission:

We provide structured training in writing, editing, illustrating and other forms of SciComm for interested members of the University of Michigan community as well as tools and resources for practicing science communication. We organize events to provide individualized guidance and feedback for communicating to diverse audiences. We host various scientific communication events, including career panels and talks with established scicomm professionals.
