November 2019 Community Call
Date: Wednesday, 20 November at 2pm EST
Topic: An introduction to the four types of communities that we see in science
Blog post: Join November’s community call!
More details
Abstract
In our work with scientific communities to date, we’ve identified different types of scientific communities – and different ways that they describe the community engagement role within their communities. This had led to a working model of four broad scientific community types that we’re eager to test and iterate!
Join us for a brief description of the four community types followed by lightning talk presentations from existing scientific community managers about how they think about their own communities (and how they might be different from the model).
