This four-part webinar series focuses on bringing your research to the public and advancing the field of aging and science during a time when the public's trust in science is waning.  We will discuss ways you can bring aging research to the public, including legislators, administrators, skeptics, funders and media. Walk away with the tools to distill your message to tailored audiences, improve your social media reach and impact and be ready for media or thought leadership opportunities.

 This webinar series is being co-hosted by the Gerontological Society of America and the National Center to Reframe Aging.
