Their confusion is understandable ‒ science communication is poorly defined with incredibly wide scope, encompassing activities from science journalism and outreach, to science policy and health communications. But in its essence, the answer is simple; science communicators build bridges between science with society. In academia, this involves educating and engaging local and global audiences on important research advances. It is often carried out on an institutional level, through press comms and public relations teams, or on a personal level, by individual scientists. This talk will examine the current landscape of science communication activities in Japan's academic institutions, why its so important and how effective science communication pays off, for the scientists and the public.
