A one-day conference at the Royal Society exploring how scientists have crafted narratives about their work, from print to television and beyond. Invited speakers from all career stages present new research in talks and discussion sessions on how science has been expressed to public audiences. It asks what can be learned from past science communication in an era of fake news, distortion and information overload. The event can also be watched online via the Royal Society YouTube channel, and lunch, tea and coffee are provided for those attending in person.
