Physics is for Everyone: How to Market Physics for The Masses

ORAL

Abstract

Marketing science for the general public is challenging. As physics students, we understand the importance and need for science education, so reaching out to those outside of our physics and science communities is a great way to share our curiosity and excitement for how the world works. This summer, I worked on providing accessible and interesting content for patrons of the Physics Central website, a site that works to encourage curiosity in physics through comics, blog posts, and other media outlets. That included writing scientific articles about often overlooked concepts in physics, as well as researching ways to make the website more eye catching and relevant.
