Acclaimed author and science communication expert Kathleen Hall Jamieson gave a virtual talk on the challenges of communicating about COVID-19 for the SOJC’s annual Richard W. and Laurie Johnston Lecture series. She also took some time to chat with us about her lecture and the nature of emerging science to the press and public in polarized times.
