SciComm & Outreach as an Early Career Astronomer

Let's discuss how to talk about our work to various groups (general public, journalists) and how to get started in SciComm!

This session will detail the types of science communication and outreach opportunities available to early career astronomers, and how to make the most of them. Particular emphasis will be placed on situations that may occur as a part of your research - an institute open day, being interviewed by a journalist, appearing on a podcast or pitching a press release. 

I am an active astronomy podcaster myself, and have previous experience in the ESO press office. Ideally, collaborators would have experience with typical social media platforms (Instagram, Twitter/X, Bluesky, TikTok etc), experience in working with the public, or other relevant experience.
