GECD and ODGE are thrilled to welcome back Jean-luc Doumont for his 
annual IAP lectures on excellence in communication --
Scientists are often perceived as living in their own impenetrable 
world. *Jean-luc Doumont discusses the challenges of communicating with 
a lay audience, and presents effective strategies for overcoming the 
challenges*. *Most of these strategies apply to communicating to 
scientists as well*. They are universal good ideas - heeding the advice 
becomes more critical when the audience is less specialized. Advanced 
registration requested via CareerBridge
