Last week, I traveled to Boise, Idaho, for the Society of Environmental Journalists’ 32nd annual conference. What a whirlwind trip full of snowtopped mountains, desert landscapes strewn with sagebrush, great conversations, and the sharing of ideas!
In early April, the communications department at the University of Miami Health System (and the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine) knew they had an important study by their scientists that would be of interest to the media and public. The study was accepted by the journal Pediatrics and was slated to be published on April 6th. The study showed that COVID-19 could cross into the placenta of pregnant women and cause brain injury in newborns, as evidenced by 2 cases they treated in Miami. With just a few days to get this information out to the world, UHealth (University of Miami Health System/Miller School of Medicine) contacted Newswise to connect with reporters.
With just a few days to plan, Newswise and UHealth set a plan of action.
On March 15, Newswise hosted an expert panel on how artificial intelligence and chatbots are changing the landscape of journalism and the transfer of knowledge.
US journalists are perennially interested in healthcare, medicine, and the environment: They’re fields where positive news, groundbreaking research, and worrisome threats all emerge every month. These are among the most common fields that Newswise members’ experts are working in, so for February, we’ve compiled a list of reporters and an editor doing outstanding writing on these beats.
