Researchers & communication
In order to raise public interest in research and to highlight the benefits of research for society at large, the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) maintains an active communication with the general public and the media. It regularly publishes media releases, organises press conferences and gives information to journalists. In addition, the SNSF supports researchers in their media contacts with a media guide and regular media training courses. A presentation technique for scientific lectures complements this offer of support in the communication domain.
