Summary
Scientists publish in academic journals, but the opportunity to significantly educate the public often comes from scientists’ interactions with the media directly. Unfortunately, students rarely are trained in how to handle media requests, or how to generate pieces for the media that can increase coverage of their work. This chapter, written by a former reporter, offers a helpful framework and specific tips for scientists’ successful interactions with the media
