Speaking Science Annual Conference

The University of Minnesota’s capstone gathering for science communication — ideas, practice, and community.

The Speaking Science Conference brings the University of Minnesota community together to explore how we share science in ways that inform, connect, and inspire. Each year features a keynote, hands‑on sessions, and space to build relationships.
