This summer I will be heading to Denmark to speak at a June 11 conference of the Danish Science Journalists' Association. A major focus of this year's conference will be the framing of science debates and the connection to policy making and research funding.
Held in Copenhagen, about 250 attendees are expected. The conference is open to the public, but main participants will include science journalists, communication professionals, scientists, and other academics. For Scienceblogs readers in Denmark, Sweden, and Germany, I will be posting more details when they are available. Check back here for information as well.
