Post Brown Bag Lunch: Erin James, The Story Model
Following the Erin James’s lively Brown Bag Lunch: The Story Model, IMCI is sharing the opportunity to collaborate with interns from the Confluence Lab.
Are you looking to increase the impact of your research with storytelling?
We are the Confluence Lab of the University of Idaho, an interdisciplinary outfit that brings together the sciences, arts, and humanities. In our new project—an approach to science and storytelling that we call Narrative Science—we partner with science practitioners to better use stories to communicate their work with diverse audiences. Thus far, we have been ambitious in providing workshops and consultations with as wide a range of science practitioners as we can, including those specializing in biophysics, fisheries science, fire ecology, model-based research, recreation resource planning and park management, geology, chemistry, architecture, and landscape architecture, among other disciplines.
Our spring team of interns are ready and eager to work with you!
What We’re Looking For: practicing scientists (graduate students, postdocs, faculty) interested in communicating a specific research project in fresh and innovative ways.
What We Can Help With: grant proposals, articles, conference presentations, job talks, media appearances, public presentations, teaching strategies.
What We’ll Need From You: availability to meet for three or four 30-minute consultations in the month of April, in-person or via Zoom, as your schedule allows.
Interested? Email Erin James at ejames@uidaho.edu today.
Not sure if you want to participate? Faculty, post-docs, and grad students are welcome to join us on March 30 for a special Brown Bag Lunch when we will be hosting the Confluence Lab. Come meet with interns and discuss how narrative science can help you. More information on this special collaborative lunch will be released later this week, so please stay tuned.
