Outreach helps your career.
Talking about your own research clearly and understandably, for people outside your field, or even out on the street: It's more than a soft skill for family dinners or when you're out with friends.
Imagine you're at a conference, and someone from industry takes an interest in you. Imagine you're interviewing for a position, answering questions from someone outside your field. Imagine you're writing a grant proposal that might be read by politicians.
Good science communication can set researchers, their papers and research groups apart from the rest. It's also a skill increasingly expected from PIs, and becoming part of many institutions' requirements for receiving funding.
We help you with outreach.
We know what it's like to be a researcher: There's always another paper, another e-mail and another grant proposal on top of the pile. Who has time for blogposts, public speaking or podcasts?
Imagine you'd have it all set up for you: A website ready to host your articles, a podcast production ready to interview you, and experienced coaches to teach you how to make the best of it. In the end, you'll have a link to a finished product you can show around to anyone, at any time.
We help you and your institution make this as easy as possible. We take care of the software, the hosting, the recording equipment and the editing: You just bring your enthusiasm to tell the world about what you do!
