The communication gap that exists between scientists and journalists is well established, but the first step to closing it is to understand why it exists. This by-invitation only meeting will be recorded to provide educational material for scientists and journalists working on the science-media interface. It will offer room for open discussion on the expectations and challenges of each side and explore new ways that both can find to share science more accurately and effectively with the world.
