The CDS Brownbag HS22 was dedicated to the topic of Science Communication: Conveying Evidence, Risk, and Uncertainty.

The communication of scientific evidence has become of imperative interest given the backdrop of recent and anticipated financial, health, and ecological crises that require evidence-based decisions. This semester's program is concerned with both theoretical and practical efforts to improve science communication and public engagement with science with respect to communicating evidence, risk, and uncertainty.

    Movie Night: Picture a Scientist

    Picture a scientist chronicles the groundswell of researchers who are writing a new chapter for women scientists. Biologist Nancy Hopkins, chemist Raychelle Burks, and geologist Jane Willenbring lead viewers on a journey deep into their own experiences in the sciences, ranging from brutal harassment to years of subtle slights. Along the way, from cramped laboratories to spectacular field stations, we encounter scientific luminaries - including social scientists, neuroscientists, and psychologists - who provide new perspectives on how to make science itself more diverse, equitable, and open to all.
