The PSECCO Conversation Series provides an informal 1-hour discussion space for a small group of early career scientists to explore a topic of interest with a more experienced researcher with considerable success in the topic area. As a participant, you will have the opportunity to steer the conversation by submitting topic-related questions with registration. The host will entertain questions related to the session, so come prepared to have an active discussion.

Science Communication with Decision Makers

Participants will have an opportunity for direct conversation and Q&A. Twila Moon will also share experiences and tips to improve scicomm skills, make connections, and find your path to scicomm action.

Twila Moon’s work focuses primarily on Greenland and the Arctic, including data tool-building, science community organization, education research, and discovery science across Arctic coastal systems. She is a passionate expert in science communication, speaking with legislators, business leaders, and others to increase awareness and action related to cryosphere and climate. Examples include testifying for the US Congress, direct work with philanthropists and global business leaders via Active Philanthropy and consulting, and extensive media experience across print, radio, and video. She is Deputy Lead Scientist and Science Communication Liaison at the National Snow and Ice Data Center.
