Whether you’re a sci-comm newbie or battle-scarred veteran, the ASC 2012 Conference has something for you.

While it’s a little too early to confirm every detail, here are a few tidbits guaranteed to whet your appetite.

So far, we can confirm there will be:
Chiefly scientists (both Federal and State)

Professional development sessions on communication planning, writing for the media, and playing the consultancy game

Speed mentoring – special opportunities for people to grill seasoned professionals (sounds like a cooking class…)

Science communication research stories from the academy and beyond

Science, art and the many things that happen when they play together

A serious look at the evolving and maturing face of social media and science communication

Science, politics, and some insight from the world of science lobbyists

Stay tuned, soooo much more to come…

Cheers,
Rod
