OSOS 2019 Workshop

August 28, 2019

Open Source for Open Science (OSOS) 2019 is a free workshop aimed to familiarize participants with selected open source software and programing tools to be able to conduct quantitative analysis and statistical methods for scientific inquiry. This year we are excited to have six module instructors focusing on an introduction to R, graphics in R, intermediate R tools for data handling, multivariate analysis in R, ecological niche modeling, accessing data repositories, a phylogenetic pipeline tutorial and a WGCNA tutorial. This course is aimed at incoming EEB graduate students; however, you need not be in EEB or a graduate student to attend. In addition, you may receive 1 credit hour of EEBL 612 for this course in the Fall 2019 semester.

Media Training Workshop

September 20, 2018

Friday, October 5th from 12-2 pm, Jeff Pool (Communications Manager, COALS) will be running a Media Training Workshop for ABS and EEB.  The workshop is intended for graduate students, but postdocs and faculty are welcome.

Summary: This workshop is specifically designed to address the needs of scientists to communicate scientific or technical information in a variety of public and professional interactions, but primarily focused on media interviews and participating in public forums. Workshop goals include building scientists’ communication skill and confidence in engaging with public audiences and providing best practices for use of different communication methods and mechanisms. Participants learn how to identify a public engagement goal, determine the relevant audience, craft tailored messages to achieve their goal and rehearse their engagement scenario.  Participants will learn how to handle press inquiries, to placing feature stories and undertaking a media campaign. This section also includes practical tips on building relationships with national, trade and broadcast journalists.  Participants will also learn about what resources the College and University provides.
