Science communication guidance

IARC's professional communicators can help you plan an outreach strategy for your research. Please contact us at the start of your project so that we can help you shape how you will communicate your work to the world.

We can help design and write newsletters, fact sheets, diagrams, figures and other visual communication products.

How we publicize your work

• Internally via weekly e-newsletter, What's Up at IARC

• Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube

• IARC website

• Annual reports, newsletters and other publications

• Press releases

• Please tell us about:

  • Your latest peer-reviewed paper

  • Awards or recognitions

  • Conference presentations

  • Collaborations you're part of

  • Exciting new findings

The online IARC Communications Guide has a lot of information on how to share your science, work with the media, collaborate with Indigenous groups, get logos, and much more.

Seminars, lectures, and more

IARC continues an active series of formal and informal seminars given by UAF-based scientists and visiting scholars. Visit the IARC events page to see all upcoming events.

• Faculty seminars and lectures: If you plan to host a seminar or lecture for yourself or a visiting researcher, check out the IARC communications guide to see whether the topic may fit into an existing webinar series. Make sure to plan ahead, webinar slots are scheduled well in advance. There are also instructions for hosting a stand-alone seminar.

• Salon series: Each semester a different IARC graduate student and/or postdoc coordinates the IARC Salon, a monthly series of talks and perspectives. IARC faculty and postdocs, are encouraged to attend and present seminars in order to meet fellow scientists and become familiar with their research.

• IARC brunch: Take a break and catch up with colleagues in a friendly, relaxed setting. IARC brunch is on the first Wednesday of every month at 10 am, alternating between online and in the SNAP Lobby.

• Connect your calendars and subscribe to email lists to keep up with all the great things happening at IARC.
