Upcoming Events

Join us to learn how health care professionals can leverage competencies in empathetic, engaging, interactive and clear communication to combat misinformation and foster trust as we discuss Training health communicators — The need for a new approach.

Do you struggle to clearly communicate your research to broader audiences, reviewers or collaborators? Join us for a university-wide training session with Randy Olson, PhD as he guides us through the ABT (And, But, Therefore) Framework — a simple, powerful tool used by scientists, communicators and policymakers worldwide to make complex ideas clear and compelling.

This talk will explore how we can build channels that add meaning and context to research, embed stronger signals of trustworthiness in the scholarly record and empower researchers to help shape how their work is understood and used beyond the traditional paper. Presented by Bernard Becker Medical Library, Center for Health & Science Communication at Becker Library and WashU Libraries, in recognition of International Open Access Week.

Explore highlights from Becker Library’s archival and rare book collections! Come and go as you please, as this is an open house style event. Light refreshments will be served. This event is free and open to the public.
