Building the Science Media Center of the United States
The SMC of the U.S. will help journalists cover stories where science is the headline—like the mapping of the Human Genome or the shock of a tsunami.
The SMC of the U.S. seeks to provide the media and public with accurate, high-quality science information and with a better understanding of the scientific method.
It is independent, nonprofit and nonpartisan.
