We’ve had a fantastic response to Fresh Science with 178 nominations from around the country. Thank you to everyone who applied.
Fresh Science is a national competition helping early career researchers find, and then share, their stories of discovery.
The program takes up-and-coming researchers with no media experience and turns them into spokespeople for science, giving them a taste of life in the limelight, with a day of media training and a public event in their home state.
Events will run across the country in October and November in states where we secure the funding.
In 2021, events are confirmed for VIC, SA, NSW and QLD.
Fresh Science is produced and run by Science in Public.
The Qld event is run by our friends and colleagues at Econnect Communication.
Stay up to date through our news bulletin for the science sector or follow us on Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn.

I never had so much confidence to go out in public and talk about my research and would have never done if I had not been part of this workshop. They were also very patient and explained the concepts so clearly. They have definitely been great initiators to take science to the society and have changed my view on science journalism for good. Thanks a lot for all the efforts and training.
