BrightFocus Foundation - Science Communication Specialist
Our client BrightFocus Foundation is looking for a science writer who can take complex data and make it lively and readable for lay audiences, without sacrificing depth or accuracy.
This is a temporary position that could become permanent for the right person. You can learn about BrightFocus Foundation at www.brightfocus.org.
The Science Communication Specialist prepares evidence-based health and research information for lay audiences. The specialist’s primary role is advancement of deeper public understanding of science, and promotion of the BrightFocus Foundation as a leading authority and unique resource on three diseases of mind and sight: Alzheimer’s disease, age-related macular degeneration and glaucoma.
The Specialist works across departments and with external volunteers from the research community to identify, research, and craft compelling narratives from source material for the organization’s web site, direct mail, press materials and other audiences.
The ideal candidate has some training and experienced in the sciences but also has written for newspapers, magazines or other popular media about research and disease-related information.
