“My research is too niche.”
“It’s too difficult to understand.”
“Science doesn’t work on social media.”

Sound familiar? You’re not alone. Many researchers feel this way — but they’re probably wrong. People are interested; you just need the right tools to communicate your work effectively.

Our Mission
At SciComm Academy, our mission is to empower researchers to translate their complex ideas into stories that resonate with a broad audience. Through hands-on courses led by expert science communicators, we guide you from the initial concept all the way to a concrete end product — whether that’s a podcast, video, pitch, poster, infographic, or popular science article.

Why Science Communication Matters
Science communication is more important than ever. It informs public debate, shapes policy, fosters trust in research, and inspires the next generation of scientists. In a world facing urgent challenges like climate change and public health crises, your voice as a researcher needs to be heard clearly and compellingly.

What we do
At SciComm Academy, our mission is to empower researchers from all disciplines to share their work with broader audiences. We offer hands-on courses given by expert science communicators, guiding you step-by-step to a concrete final product — whether that’s a podcast, video, pitch, poster, infographic, or popular science article.

Besides our courses for individual researchers, we also offer tailor-made SciComm courses for your faculty, doctoral school, research group, or institute. Reach out to learn more. With expert coaching and strong media partnerships, we equip you with practical skills and connections to amplify your voice beyond academia.
