#SciCommMake 2020: Special Session on COVID-19

In the summer of 2020, a special session of #SciCommMake was held to address the public understanding of the COVID-19 pandemic. Teams of scientists, artists, and science communicators won funding to deliver evidence-based messages about COVID-19 to the public.

Participants attended a matchmaking session form partnerships based on expertise and creative skills. After coaching and concept development, they pitched their project ideas to a distinguished panel of judges. Ten teams were selected to receive $1,000 each to complete their projects, as well as invitations to present their projects at the 2020 Sigma Xi Annual Meeting and Student Research Conference and the Science Talk conference. The funds for this special session of #SciCommMake were made possible thanks to Giving Tuesday Now donations and a generous gift from Science Communicators of North Carolina.Read the full story.
