News bulletin for the science sector

• Lockdown science: find owls; psychedelic film of forces of nature; and training at home – Working in science we can get a bit blasé and forget how cool it is, and how privileged we are to get to explore big ideas. 
  
  
• Extension for Fresh Science, astronomy awards, women in physics, and more – deadlines extended for Fresh Science and Metcalf Prizes.
  
  
• Closing soon: CSL Fellowships/Metcalf stem cells/Fresh Science; & other news – One week to go for Fresh Science, Metcalf Prizes and CSL Centenary Fellowships.
  

For scientists, research organisations and science leaders, this bulletin will tell you when various science prizes and awards are opening and closing, it’ll flag other science news, events, opportunities and training.

Science stories for journalists

Get a heads up on big science stories and interesting speakers. For example, we promoted the discovery of the Higgs boson, the world’s first 3D printed jet engine and the winners of the Prime Minister’s Prize for Science.

• The Milky Way isn’t special, National Science Week approaches and an award for a mini X-ray machine
  
• Vaccine comments from the Australian Academy of Health and Medical Sciences
  
• Big puffy galaxies make more stars; cancer growth and leukaemia survival

Overseas? We send stories of Australian science and activities suited for an international audience.

• Ring galaxies, whale sharks, solar windows, pandemic-planning, vaccines aren’t enough

Would you like a news bulletin for your organisation?

Regular communication with your team builds a sense of belonging and scientists and science leaders can hear about major events, networking and training opportunities, as well as chances to promote their work and to nominate for a number of prestigious science prizes.

We can create, write and distribute a newsletter for you. Currently we do this for:

• Physics in Australia: a monthly bulletin on physics events, issues and activities from the president of the Australian Institute of Physics.
• National Stem Cell Foundation of Australia: a bi-monthly newsletter for stem cell researchers, patients and educators.

We’ve done similar newsletters for universities to share research achievements across the faculty.

Contact me to talk through email niall@scienceinpublic.com.au and tell us which you’d like to receive.
