(MIT Laboratory for Nuclear Science)
Science education and public outreach programs are designed to engage and excite the community in many fascinating fields, including Neutrino and Dark Matter physics. I will discuss a diverse program of education and outreach implemented by the Physics faculty at the MIT Laboratory for Nuclear Science, and highlight some methods and strategies they employ to communicate recent advances in Neutrino and Dark Matter research to a wide audience.
