Science Communication University of Zurich in Switzerland

Extremely excited and grateful that our new project on hashtag#artificial hashtag#intelligence is funded by the Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF ?? Over the next 4 years, Dr. Daniela Mahl, Mike S. Schäfer and I will dive deep into how hashtag#AI is changing science communication from different perspectives ?? ?? I will be leading two work packages that analyze strategic hashtag#communicators' and hashtag#intermediaries' perspectives on the impact of AI, and I already look forward to speaking with institutional communicators, scientists, social media influencers, and journalists.??To truly understand and track the impact of AI over time, we will use surveys and serial qualitative interviews with think-aloud and human-AI interaction approaches, content analysis, text-as-data techniques, and social network analysis - thus combining self-reported, textual, and observational data as well as data donations. ?? If you’re interested to collaborate, please reach out! We will soon be advertising hashtag#PhD positions - feel free to contact us if you have any questions.…more "Science Communication in the Age of AI": New research project The Swiss National Science Foundation SNSF has agreed to fund a new, large-scale, 4-year project on science communication & AI within UZH Department of Communication and Media Research (IKMZ)'s scicomm team.The project focuses on current and future changes in science communication related to AI, and their assessment. In five work packages, it analyses individual hashtag#scientists as well as hashtag#communicators from scientific organizations and institutions of hashtag#highereducation, intermediaries such as science hashtag#journalists and hashtag#influencers, and citizens as hashtag#audiences of science communication. In addition, the project investigates broader socio-technical contexts, public and sectoral debates, and expert assessments on ethical, legal, regulatory, societal, and technological aspects of AI. More info about the project ? https://lnkd.in/eTkXURpB The proposal was written by Dr. Daniela Mahl, Dr. Sophia Charlotte Volk and me, and we will all lead work packages. There will also be 2 PhD positions available (details to follow). The project is supported by an Advisory Board consisting of Mirko Bischofberger (Science Studios), Philipp Burkard and Flurin Beuggert (both Science et Cité), Gian-Andri Casutt (ETH Board and #EUPRIO - European Association of Communication Professionals in Higher Education), Olaf Kramer (RHET AI Center), Colin Porlezza (USI Università della Svizzera italiana), Stephanie Schnydrig (CH Media and hashtag#SKWJ - Schweizer Klub für Wissenschaftsjournalismus), and hashtag#MonikaTaddicken (Technische Universität Braunschweig). hashtag#wisskomm hashtag#scicomm hashtag#wissenschaftskommunikation hashtag#sciencecommunication hashtag#AI hashtag#KI hashtag#artificialintelligence hashtag#künstlicheintelligenz University of Zurich hashtag#SUPRIO COALESCE SciComm ComAI ETH AI Center EPFL AI Center…more
