Graduate Students, Postdocs

Scheduled to take place at Michigan State University on October 26-27, 2024, ComSciCon-MI is a free workshop focused on science communication. This event is tailored specifically for graduate students and postdocs in Michigan and neighboring regions, and this year, we are pleased to extend participation opportunities to undergraduates interested in science communication as well.

ComSciCon, a 501(c)(3) organization, is widely recognized for its impactful professional development programs, conceptualized and led by STEM graduate students. Each year, we select 40 participants to attend the workshop at no cost, thanks to the generous support of our sponsors. The program features panel sessions with approximately 20 invited professional science communicators, writing sessions to hone participants' skills, peer and expert review of writing, and a pop talk contest where participants showcase their science outreach projects and forge new collaborations.
