Have you ever been unsure about what to say when a total stranger asks,
"what is it you do?" How about at ta poster session or at a job interview?
Would you like to be sure your answer is engaging and draws them in,
whether they are a scientist or non-scientist? Join Ali Branscombe and
David Hosansky from UCAR Communications as they give us tips on how to
share our science in a meaningful and engaging wa, and guide us through
practicing! These time-tested tips will help you talk to fellow scientists,
funders, and policymakers.

It is a super worthwhile workshop for people on any career path!

I recognize that Boulder, Colorado, sits on the ancestral homelands and
unceded
territory of Indigenous Peoples, many of whom were displaced from Boulder
Valley <https://coloradoencyclopedia.org/article/sand-creek-massacre>
in the 1850s. These include people of the Arapaho, Cheyenne, and Ute Nations
