Other Publications

This guide aims to enhance knowledge of AI tools that can assist in the practice of science journalism. While not exhaustive, the tools listed are those considered most useful. The guide is the result of a three-pronged methodology: 1) In March 2024, a webinar was held with science communication professionals who shared the AI tools they used most frequently and found most beneficial in their daily work. 2) In April 2024, the SCS-UPF team, together with science journalists from the FRONTIERS advisory board, selected from these tools those deemed most relevant for science journalists. 3) During the pilot course of the FRONTIERS project held in Barcelona in June 2024, this selection of tools was tested.
