Effective science communication is more important than ever. This talk will give a behind-the-scenes look at the paleontology-focused YouTube channel PBS Eons and touch on Moore’s work as a “fossil librarian.” Moore will also include tips for successful science communication while navigating tricky topics like AI and controversial scientific practices.

Kallie Moore is an enthusiastic paleontologist and science communicator. She is the Collections Manager, or ‘Fossil Librarian’, of the paleontology collection at the University of Montana, as well as a co-host and content consultant on the YouTube channel PBS Eons. Her debut children’s book, Tales of the Prehistoric World, was released in the fall of 2022.

Moderated by Will Cushman.
