Project Bridge Colorado
Science Comm group based at CU Denver dedicated to bridging the communication gap between researchers
Scientists often encounter difficulty expressing the excitement and importance of their work to non-scientist family and friends. This communication barrier is reflected in the growing cultural gap between researchers and the public, and the current dour funding climate that threatens our nation’s academic science industry. Unfortunately, traditional academic training often fails to adequately equ

Project Bridge CO takes on the Denver Metro Regional Science & Engineering Fair!
This past weekend, we met some incredibly intelligent and curious young scientists at the DMRSEF Kickoff. Here, we were lucky enough to present our research to these aspiring scientists and their parents in the form of a Gong Show, and we were all blown away by their questions and ideas. We can't wait to see them present their science fair projects in the spring!
The RNA Day Gong Show is happening now at Ratio Beerworks! Unfortunately our connection wasn’t strong enough to Livestream the event, but NEVER FEAR! We’re recording video of all the speakers (except for when our phone overheated in the Denver sun)- and will be posting as soon as the show is over. Happy RNA Day!
