*****************************************************************************

If anyone's interested in talking about how science centers can explore citizen science collaborations, you're welcome to join a citizen science community forum we just kicked off. We'd love to hear from you, even if this isn't something your institution currently does. Join the conversation here (more information about the forum below): http://www.citizenscience.org/community/blog/2011/10/25/informal-science-institutions/


Citizen science and science centers have shared interests in both research and education, and each are particularly skilled at bringing science alive for the general public. How might they be even better, together? Join a dialogue between science center professionals and citizen science project leaders to explore opportunities and challenges for integrating citizen science activities into science center programming. Your experiences are valuable, as are your questions, and we hope you can take a moment to share some thoughts. This topic is one in a series of monthly discussions on CitizenScience.org/Community<http://CitizenScience.org/Community> that aim to improve citizen science practice by learning from others in this field.
