Traditionally, communicating science to a wider public has not been seen as a core academic pursuit. It has tended to be relegated to the margins under the heading of ‘outreach’. However, new emphases on knowledge exchange and on research impacts mean that scientists within can – and indeed should – see science communication as much more central to their work. This talk presents an academic editor’s view of how best to exploit the opportunities by winning commissions and getting science writing published.

Anthony Haynes is Creative Director of the Professional and Higher Partnership (www.professionalandhigher.com) and Visitor Professor at Beijing Normal University and Hiroshima University.
