Communicating Chemistry follows chemist Michael Grass as he prepares to present his investigation to the scientific community. Grass studies ways of creating nanoparticles—tiny shapes made of groups of atoms—used to make chemical reactions happen more quickly. Communicating Chemistry describes how Grass creates a poster and prepares for a scientific conference, highlighting why conferences are important for scientists. Students may use the included tips for presenting posters as they prepare for their own classroom scientific conference. This book models the process of communicating the results of an investigation.
