Following from our last event on public engagement, there is a conference coming up by @SiP2019 (#SciComm/#publicengagement). Call for abstracts now open (closes 29th March) & can be 5-min lightning talks or demos as wells as papers. Bursaries available! sip2019.com
Quite the mini conference season going on right now! Thanks to @ConstructKnow for hosting myself and other PGs/staff on the theme of public engagement last Friday. Lovely to see the @chstmphds and to hear about the range of public engagement currently thriving across departments.
Thank you to everyone who came to our symposium and to our wonderful presenters! We had some fascinating papers and discussions 😁
Story of MY life? Learning about public engagement from inspiring communicators at the @ConstructKnow symposium! #learning #SciComm #sharingiscaring #sciencelove
We asked a room of postgraduates at @ConstructKnow to describe the NHS in one word and this is what they came up with!
Ready, Set, Engage! Our workshop games for our afternoon symposium on public engagement are ready to go #ConstructingKnowledges

Check out this spectacular chance to develop your public engagement project. Plus, it's a rather unique opportunity to learn how researchers in other disciplines develop their own outreach programs!!!
