| What is a science communicator? The era of once-a-decade outliers like Carl Sagan is long gone. In the present day of internet-borne disinformation and science denial, science communication has emerged as a vibrant and painfully necessary field, with an army of scholars focusing their expertise exclusively on informing the public.

On the next Skeptical Inquirer Presents livestream on Thursday, March 16, at 7:00 p.m. ET, Dave Farina of the popular YouTube channel “Professor Dave Explains” will discuss the current state of science communication. Charlatans and anti-science propaganda have never been more prevalent, and the stakes have never been higher. The existential challenge of the 21st century is here: How do we help people know what is true? Farina will help clarify the issue and the players involved, as well as highlight important strategies that can help us win this war with ourselves.
