Science Writers, Unite!

This weekend I’m headed to New Haven for the ScienceWriters2010 conference. I’m a Travel Fellow, which means I’ll be blogging and Tweeting coverage from the meeting. I’ve signed up to blog from the session on ‘Data visualization for reporting and storytelling.’ As scientists ramp up their work on whole-genome sequencing, say, and gene expression maps, and protein configurations and brain ‘connectomes‘, we journalists need to figure out compelling ways to present those massive streams of data. I’m quite excited to find out how.
