SUMMARY:Publication to press: building trust in research communication
DESCRIPTION:Media interest in research has never been greater due to the global impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and Climate Change\, among other topics. How research is communicated varies from an international scale down to local level\, as also reflected in the quality of coverage from in-depth news features to poorly referenced\, click-bait churnalism.  Join us for this online seminar that takes place over one day – Wednesday 9th February.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen\n\n\n\n\nWednesday\, February 9\, 2022 – 10:00 GMTtoWednesday\, February 9\, 2022 – 15:00 GMT \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhere\n\n\n\n\nOnlineUnited Kingdom \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Event\n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration \n\n\n\n\n\nRegistration closed  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEvent Summary \n\n\n\n\n\nHow research is communicated should be of the greatest importance to academics\, their organisations\, funders\, journals and the media organisation. Ultimately it should be of the highest importance to policy makers and society. Yet\, in a world where research is increasingly published Open Access there is still a failure to include all of the relevant pieces of information\, such as links to the research paper\, especially on a local level.   \n\n\n\nThose working in the publishing\, media communications\, library and journalism sectors share common ground and would benefit from a greater understanding of how they could benefit by their greater collaboration. Librarians and journalists both work to analyse and deliver factual information\, yet that is undermined by missing out key elements that can underpin a news story\, such as an article or funder link.   \n\n\n\nAcademics looking to capture pathways to impact miss out on evidence if there is no audit trail relating to the coverage due to the lack of proper media coverage. Whilst Altmetrics can help this\, it often fails to pick up mentions\, due to the aforementioned problems. The lack of substantial evidence within a news story has the potential to generate fake or poorly reported news\, which can have a damaging impact on research communication. It is much harder for a journalist to apply bias or cherry pick a piece of research if they have to cite a freely available research article or lay summary.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWho should attend? \n\n\n\n\n\nThis seminar is aimed at journalists\, librarians\, publishers and communications professionals in universities and publishing.   \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPre-event checks \n\n\n\n\n\nTo test your system ahead of time visit https://support.goto.com/webinar/system-check-attendee \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAccessibility \n\n\n\n\n\nAt UKSG\, we are committed to ensuring an exceptional experience for all our delegates.

The COVID pandemic presented a rapidly expanding and evolving science coupled with significant scientific uncertainty. There has been much public and political hunger for information\, as well as debate and misinformation\, all amplified and polarized by social media. There is a story to tell\, but the consequences of misinformation can have fatal consequences and cause considerable public harm. Andrew is Reader in Public Health at the University of Sheffield\, and has been sought after by the media for his expertise in communicable disease control\, including BBC News & Newsnight\, Australian Broadcasting Corporation\, the Guardian\, El Mercurio and various radio channels. He will discuss an academic’s perspective on science communication during the pandemic\, lessons learned\, and how academics and the media can work synergistically for the public good.” \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAndrew Lee \n\n\n\nUniversity of Sheffield  \n\n\n\n\n\nSee Biography\ntba \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n10.45 \n\n\n\n\n\nMeaningful media impact through science communication best practice: a publisher perspective \n\n\n\n“Good quality science communication can help research fly\, enhancing public understanding and trust in the scientific process.
