Harvard Catalyst’s Writing and Communication Center was established in 2021 to empower clinical and translational researchers and team members throughout every stage of their careers to better articulate their science. The center includes dozens of free resources, tools, and trainings on science communication, including self-guided learning modules, videos featuring leading experts, rubrics, templates and worksheets, links to courses, recommended reading, and more.
