Date and Time
Science communication researcher Suzannah Evans Comfort says public relations may have more influence on science news compared to other types of news coverage.
Comfort, assistant professor in the Media School at Indiana University, will discuss her research as part of the SciComm Speaker Series at 3 p.m. Feb. 26. The lecture, “It Takes Two: The Permeability of Science Journalism to Public Relations” will be virtual and streamed live on Zoom.
The virtual event is a part of the SciComm Lecture Series, an initiative of Penn State’s Science Communication Program. The program is housed in the Donald P. Bellisario College of Communications and builds productive research collaborations between scientists in a variety of disciplines with science communications researchers.
