19 January 2024

Suzhou, a city mingling innovation and classics, is ready to host refreshing and sparkling conversation from 17 to 19 October 2024 to renew our science communication community.

We invite symposium submissions that represent the diversity of global science communication activity, including research articles, practical case studies, and popular science performances. Proposals within the theme of ‘Communicating Science across Cultures’ are welcome.

Register online and submit (under 500 words) by 29 February 2024.

Contributions will be reviewed and those selected will be scheduled for onsite presentations. Participants for the plenary roundtables will also be selected based on the quality of the abstracts received.

For those proposing science performances, please communicate with Professor Guoyan Wang directly via email on gywang@suda.edu.cn.

This conference will be held in the most beautiful season of the Suzhou Gardens.
