Scicomm support: weekly curated listing of jobs, trainings & funding

The free, weekly WySCI newsletter I curate highlights a host of jobs, resources, trainings, funding, and more

I’m keeping it simple this week and highlighting a project I run that could be helpful for folks in or interested in scicomm.

There are actually a lot of free, online trainings, events, jobs, and resources relevant to scicomm research, teaching/training, and practice. So much so that even if you figure out the niche corners of the internet where they are posted (it can be hard to find them!), it can be overwhelming to sort through them.

But, you don’t have to! Years ago, I started curating a free weekly newsletter during the academic year at my institution (September-May). Through a campus organization I co-founded, we still send out that newsletter. It’s free, as succinct as we can make it, and folks say things like this about it:

"Your newsletter has been SUPER useful. I have really found something (often many things) I can use in every issue! It is fantastic!" ~Scicomm professor, South Africa

"Honestly, my favorite thing about this newsletter is how personal it sounds - like it's an old friend sharing some good news with you!" ~Science communication professional

"[If this newsletter did not exist] it would be very hard to find a place with similar information." ~College student pursuing science communication career

You might want to check out that newsletter or share it if:

✔️you or someone you know looking to transition to a scicomm job.

✔️you or someone you know are looking for scicomm jobs. There is actually a kind of amazing volume of them right now, spanning the gamut from 6- and 7-figure leadership roles to entry positions in virtually every science and science-related field.

✔️you are looking for funding for scicomm or scicomm research efforts. The funding landscape might feel fragmented right now, but there are a wide range of sources and some of them aren't super obvious.

🎯If you're looking for a ready-made list that stays put (same link, same place, we just add to it weekly), you'll also love our annual archive. We pull all the jobs, trainings, resources, grants, etc., into one spot so you can revisit them.
