ALPSP: Trust, Truth and Scholarly Publishing: Public engagement with scholarly research

In our industry, scholarly authors write for their peers, using terms and techniques appropriate for their audience. But their results are also often of interest to a broader audience, particularly findings that impact on everyday lives. So how can we explain complex concepts to a lay audience? Do the filters that exist in modern media channels distort messages and undermine the trust that the public might have in science and academia? What approaches can be deployed to stop this happening?

This is the third webinar in the Trust, Truth and Publishing series. Others in the series are Publishing without perishing on 26 April and The reproducibility opportunity on 22 May. Member discount available for booking all three!
