What is the issue? Important and beneficial science always happening – General public does not always learn about it

How do we solve it? Science journalism – Communication of science information becomes: More available Easy to understand

The main goal Convey scientific stories in a way that a general audience can easily understand

What tools do we have? Science journalists use: – Research techniques – Interview skills – Writing

Important science stories UA Professor Jeff Pyun – Research team discovered a way to turn waste sulfur into plastic Jared Griebel, a member of Pyun’s research team, turns waste sulfur into plastic. An example of plastic made out of waste sulfur.

Important science stories UA Professor Hong Hua – Developing a variety of wearable head-mounted display systems Professor Hong Hua wearing one of her head-mounted displays.

Important science stories UA Undergraduate Biology Research Program

Why is this important? Positively impact the general public – Inform it of science work that has the potential to benefit the world
