Back in May, fellow birthday boy Matt Nisbet and I gave a two-pronged keynote address to the annual meeting of the American Institute of Biological Sciences. The subject: How to communicate about science, particularly in politically fraught areas. I pretty much winged it, though I hope I provided some insights--and then Matt provided real data on this question. You can watch the whole thing here, complete with slide shows, transcripts, and audio. Feedback appreciated. I really think that Matt and I should take this show on the road....
P.S.: Note to Randy Olson, there's a shameless plug for Flock of Dodos in this presentation....
