Webinar Program Explores A Model Program for Communicating Science to
Decision Makers

Funding agencies increasingly encourage grant recipients to communicate
their findings to appropriate stakeholders. Many researchers, particularly
those involved with projects with implications for environmental or public
health management and policy, want to communicate research findings to
appropriate decision makers, news media outlets, or the general public. This
webinar presents information and findings from the HBRF Science Links
Program, an experiment conducted by scientists and engineers affiliated with
the Hubbard Brook research program. The HBRF Science Links Program
demonstrates how a team of scientists can identify and plan a program that
effectively delivers timely scientific findings to audiences that need the
information to inform decision making.
