2026 FNR Media Training for Researchers

Have you ever wondered about how to involve the public with your research work? Would you like to improve your communication skills to talk to the media and the public? What to say during an interview to get your message across? Would you like to feel safer in front of a TV camera or when communicating on social media? Then join us for a straight-to-the-point training!  

The FNR invites all researchers and science communicators to a half-day media crash course on Thursday, 15 January 2026 from 11:30-17:30 at the Maison du Savoir in Esch/Belval (building Auditoires, room 3.200, 3rd floor). 

This training session will help you improve the dissemination of your work. You will acquire the theory and practical skills that you need to stay on top during an interview (or any other public appearance) and communicate your message to the public. The training will be run by highly experienced science TV journalists.  

How to register?
