ASGCT Communications Symposium

Effective communication for funding, peer review, and beyond (Organized by the Communications Committee)
In today’s competitive environment, the ability to clearly and concisely communicate your science can be as critical as the science itself. This session will provide researchers at all career stages with practical tools for sharpening their message, differentiating their work, and tailoring communications for different stakeholders. Speakers will share strategies for developing a compelling elevator pitch, framing your research to stand out in grant and funding applications, and using the right communication channels—from traditional publications to emerging social platforms—to reach the audiences that matter. Whether you are engaging potential funders, collaborators, or policy stakeholders, this symposium will equip you with techniques to advocate for your research and yourself.
