Subject: Announcing Kavli SciComm Essentials Spring 2024 Program
Dear Giovanna,

The Science and Society team at The Kavli Foundation is excited to share the Spring 2024 program<https://community.kavlimeetings.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/15/2024/02/scicommessentials2024.pdf> for the Kavli SciComm Essentials Series, featuring highly requested topics including:

•      From Bench to Broadcast: Working with journalists as a basic scientist<https://www.kavlimeetings.org/scicomm-essentials-media-interviews-preparation/>

•      Integrating Communication and Engagement into your Scientific Career<https://www.kavlimeetings.org/make-it-personal/>

•      Navigating Ethical and Societal Considerations in Discovery Science<https://www.kavlimeetings.org/modern-science-deserves-modern-scicomm/>

The first session begins in a few weeks, so register<https://community.kavlimeetings.org/science-and-society/> soon!

Whether you're a graduate student, postdoc, faculty member, communications or engagement professional, or simply someone passionate about the intersection of science and society, this series offers a unique opportunity to connect with like-minded Kavli Institute members, share insights, and connect about the future of discovery science.

This spring will feature sessions on working with journalists by SciLine<https://www.sciline.org/> (AAAS), building communication into your scientific career with three Kavli Institute Scientists, and navigating ethical issues born from scientific discovery. Institute members can also revisit sessions from prior years in our growing library here<https://community.kavlimeetings.org/science-and-society/>.

Please feel free to share this information and registration links with colleagues at your institute (graduate students, postdocs, faculty, staff, etc.) – anyone affiliated with a Kavli Institute is invited to join.

Register now and join us as we navigate the complexities of discovery science together.
