My application for the CCST Science Translators Showcase 2024 has been accepted (with travel support).

CCST Science Translators Showcase is an annual event organized by California Council on Science and Technology (CCST), which is a non-profit organization that aims to inform California’s policies through science and technology.

As part of this program, the final 13 candidates selected will get a chance to explain their research to legislative staffers, agency managers, and senior policy leaders during a networking event at the California State Capitol. The candidates are also provided with trainings to effectively communicate science to policymakers and their staff before the event.

If you want to know what I will be presenting at the event, here is a link to a 60-second video that I created as part of the above application.

The event for this year is scheduled for Feb 07, 2024 at the California State Capitol! Hope to see some of you there!
