Communicating health psychology research to lay audiences

Workshop Description

Looking for ways to communicate your research to others outside of the research world but not knowing where to start? In this two-day interactive workshop facilitated by Dr. Laura König (University of Bayreuth, Germany) and Dr. Heide Busse (BIPS Bremen, Germany), you will have a chance to delve into the topic of science communication. Together, we will discuss why engaging in science communication is rewarding for health psychology researchers at all career stages, explore how to develop and plan a science communication activity, discover different avenues for the implementation of such activities, and look at examples for do’s and don’ts in science communication. At the end of the workshop, you will be able to plan and implement a science communication strategy for your own research or practice. In addition, you will meet and exchange ideas with other international early career researchers and ample opportunity for exchange and networking will be provided.
