The Science Communication Project @ISU was founded in 2010 with the goal of enhancing collaborative research on, education for, and the practice of public science communication, broadly conceived. Our biennial symposia- which include public presentations of multidisciplinary research and interactive workshops- bring together a network of scholars who share interests in public engagement of science, environmental communication, natural resource management, and agriscience. Conference proceedings showcase research, evaluations, and critiques of science communication-related practices and phenomena.

Abstract
North Carolina Sea Grant College Program coastal extension and communication specialists share a strong belief in applied science and pursue outreach much like agricultural extension agents. These papers document the challenges inherent in communicating science by this community of practice through 12 months of participant observation and in-depth interviews.
