DESCRIPTION:In recent years\, the nature of public engagement has been shi
 fting. Alongside well-established means of engaging the public\, new media
  technologies have opened up an enormous range of options for communicatin
 g far beyond the physical limits of the university. Podcasts are a hugely 
 effective method of getting your research out there\, such as those by Cam
 bridge’s *Naked Scientists*. These reach a large and diverse audience\, 
 frequently rate very highly in the iTunes download chart\, and also have s
 treaming slots on local radio.\n\n*Chris Smith* will talk about his experi
 ences with the Naked Scientists and about the benefits of public engagemen
 t. Along with experts from the Community Affairs team\, ‘how to’ advic
 e will also be given about producing and disseminating podcasts\, so that 
 you can get started. Finally\, you will have the chance to ask questions o
 f the speakers.\n\nBooking is essential. "Please click here.":http://www.t
