SUMMARY:DEADLINE: NPF Rare Disease Reporting Fellowship and Grants
DESCRIPTION:“For the 300 million people living with a rare disease\, this is an age of innovation. Early detection and treatment has yielded astonishing advancements\, signaling the possibility of broader impact through revolutionary testing methods and customized therapies. \n“To help international journalists tell stories of these possibilities and the challenges that remain\, the National Press Foundation is providing a week of free online training [Nov. 17-21\, 2025] for professional journalists in any medium. This fourth in a series of journalism fellowships\, made possible with support by Fondation Ipsen\, will consist of on-the-record briefings and question-and-answer sessions with top experts\, including topics such as childhood disease therapies\, AI-driven drug development and venture capital for rare disease research. Journalists will also hear from leaders of global patient advocacy groups and veteran journalists in the field. \n“All accepted fellows will receive the training. In addition\, NPF will offer up to $2\,000 in reporting grants to 20 journalists to cover travel expenses and time in executing a rare diseases project of their choosing.”

SUMMARY:ASC Webinar: Attending to Invisible Wounds — Trauma-Informed Science Communication
DESCRIPTION:“In this workshop\, we’ll discuss key principles of trauma informed science communication. We’ll talk about how to recognize signs of trauma and differentiate it from stress. For example\, we’ll talk about strategies for relationship building to keep open communication pathways with your audience. We’ll also discuss how previous traumas influence learning. Participants will work in small groups to brainstorm how trauma can manifest in their science communication activities and strategies for managing it. We also discuss the role of power in educational settings\, how power dynamics can worsen trauma symptoms\, and how to use evidence-based strategies like codesign to minimize power dynamics. Participants will have a chance to brainstorm how to use codesign or other strategies to create more balanced power dynamics.” \nTime Zone: PDT \nLocation: Virtual \n

SUMMARY:Metcalf Institute: Equity on the Table — A Conversation about Public Health\, Food Access and Climate Change
DESCRIPTION:“Between soaring food prices and public health crises\, issues around health and food access are in the news almost daily. Engaging in these topics can be difficult as the issues continue to be fueled by both climate change and turbulent politics. Join Metcalf for “Equity on the Table: A Conversation about Public Health\, Food Access\, and Climate Change” on Thursday\, October 23\, to learn how you can help create a healthier and more equitable food future for yourself and your community. \n“This event will feature a panel discussion with three fellows from the SciComm Identities Project (SCIP): Dr. Ambarish Karmalkar\, an Assistant Professor in the Department of Geosciences at the University of Rhode Island; Dr. Roger Figueroa\, Assistant Professor in Social and Behavioral Science in Nutrition in the Division of Nutritional Sciences\, College of Human Ecology at Cornell University; and Dr. Christine Ekenga\, a Rollins Assistant Professor of Environmental Health at the Rollins School of Public Health at Emory University. Moderated by Fara Warner\, Metcalf Institute’s Executive Director\, the conversation will focus on the intersection of climate change\, public health and food equity\, and will highlight the fellows’ research. \n“Launched by the Metcalf Institute\, Michigan State University’s Knight Center for Environmental Journalism\, and the URI Science and Story Lab\, the SCIP fellowship was a one-year professional development opportunity for pre-tenure faculty at U.S. institutions who identify as underrepresented racial or ethnic minorities in STEM. The project\, supported by a $2.8 million collaborative National Science Foundation grant and co-led by URI’s Dr. Sunshine Menezes and Michigan State’s Dr. Bruno Takahashi\, addressed the significant gap in science communication research and training by centering the motivations\, experiences\, and priorities of underrepresented scientists. The fellowship offered three cohorts that each focused on a specific subtheme: energy\, water\, and food. \n“This free event is open to the public and will take place at the University of Rhode Island’s Kingston campus (Hope Room\, Higgins Welcome Center). A reception will be held October 23 from 5 to 5:30 PM with the lecture beginning at 5:30 PM. The discussion will also be livestreamed. Registration is encouraged for in-person attendees and required to receive the livestream link.”

SUMMARY:EGU Webinar: How Scientists Can Respond to Autocratisation
DESCRIPTION:“We live in an era in which science around the world is increasingly under politically-motivated attack. Join this special EGU webinar to get an overview of how scientists can respond and safeguard their work. The webinar will last for 1.5 hours with time for audience Q&A.” Start time: 16:00 CET // 10 a.m. EST // 7 a.m. PST. \n“Speaker: Stephan Lewandowsky (University of Bristol) – Stephan is a cognitive scientist at the University of Bristol whose main interest is in the pressure points between the architecture of online information technologies and human cognition\, and the consequences for democracy that arise from those pressure points. His research explores people’s responses to misinformation and propaganda\, and how corrections affect our memory; why people reject well-established scientific facts\, such as climate change or the effectiveness of vaccinations; the potential conflict between the architecture of our online information ecosystem and democracy.”
