Outreach strategy for SAGEX

A group of SAGEX ESRs will meet with the Outreach Task Group in Berlin on 7 – 8 February 2019 to brainstorm ideas and plan the central outreach strategy for our project. Attendees will include Ekaterina Eremenko, a leading scientific film-maker, and Susanne Milde, an experienced scientific communicator, both of whom are industry partners of SAGEX.

We are in the exciting position of having significant funding to spend on outreach, and an opportunity to raise awareness of and interest in amplitudes research.
