Building Trust in Scientific Communication: Presentation Slides

Building Trust in Scientific Communication

Roshni Arun and Riley Harper, JOURney: the Journal Of Undergraduate Research, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

In an era marked by misinformation and skepticism towards scientific expertise, establishing trust in scientific communication is more critical than ever. This presentation will explore how undergraduate journals can foster trust and credibility through transparency, rigorous peer review practice, and engaging with the larger community. Drawing on examples from managing UNC JOURney, we will outline practical methods to build transparency, clearly communicate scientific findings to diverse audiences, and foster stronger community engagement. By session end, attendees will possess actionable strategies to enhance the trustworthiness, clarity, and societal relevance of their student-led journals.
