See photos from our latest Science Media SAVVY media skills workshop, held in Dunedin 27-28 March.
It was a jam-packed two days of practice interviews, discussion, hands-on exercises and exposure to a range of fascinating research projects and new ideas.
We had a fantastic group of motivated scientists with us, and they had excellent things to say about the experience:
“Friendly, experienced and knowledgeable team — made a daunting experience very easy!”
“There aren’t many opportunities that merit two whole days of an early-career scientist’s time, but this was worth every moment.”
“This workshop was simply fantastic — a great intro to the media for scientists with lots of practical experiences. Absolutely would recommend it to colleagues.”
