Dear PSCI-com subscribers: 

My name is Paige Brown, and I am a PhD student in Science Communication at Louisiana State University. I am e-mail to request if the following message could be distributed to journalists within this listerv:

For my PhD project at Louisiana State University, I have created a survey that aims to answer questions related to how science research and press releases are translated into science news.

By participating in this survey, which only takes 15 minutes to complete, journalists, bloggers and other communicators can help communication researchers like me understand how science makes its way from research publication to news story. By participating in this survey, you also have the chance to win $20 Starbucks gift card as the 100th, 200th, etc. participant.

To participate, participants can simply copy and paste the following URL into a new browser window:

Please share this survey with colleagues in any form of blogging or journalism.

Thank you sincerely,

-Paige Brown
