Communicating Science Workshop

LaToya Myles participated in "Communicating Science: Tools for Scientists and Engineers,” a skill-building workshop sponsored by NOAA and the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS). The workshop was held on October 27 at the NOAA Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Laboratory in Princeton, NJ, and included over 50 participants from various NOAA laboratories and divisions. The presentations and exercises were designed to help scientists and engineers successfully communicate research and scientific information to the public and news media through traditional outlets such as press releases and television interviews and through emerging multimedia resources such as blogs and podcasts.
