Truth, trust and TikTok: navigating science media in the digital age
This talk runs from 19.00 – 20.00
Whether you're scrolling through TikTok, listening to a podcast or reading the news, science reaches us through more channels than ever before. But with so much information competing for our attention, how do we decide what to trust?
Join board members of the Association of British Science Writers; freelance science journalist Andy Extance and former BBC Radio Science Unit Editor Deborah Cohen as they explore how science journalists and communicators are adapting to a new media landscape and creating high-quality, trusted content. Their discussion will explore how science stories are shared, who influences public understanding, and what this means for society's relationship with science.
