Open to all registrants
Thursday, February 18, 2010: 3:00 PM-4:30 PM
Room 9 (San Diego Convention Center)
The Public Engagement with Scientists Consortium welcomes members from scientific associations, universities, and museums to explore ways to further develop the talents of scientists in engaging with learners of all ages. The focus is on ways scientists can talk with, listen to, and explore together with diverse participants in a variety of settings. The consortium seeks to enable visitors and scientists to respond to individual and community questions and concerns, using a model of mutual learning. The clinic is open to AAAS Annual Meeting registrants and the public. For more information, contact Tom Zinnen at zinnen@biotech.wisc.edu.
