[ASC-list] PhD Thesis in Science Communication (CPAS)

[Sean Perera]

Hello SCERN Members (c/o ASC e-mailing list),
 
 During my call earlier for recommendations re: future SCERN actions, there were some requests for a list of PhD thesis in science communication. 

 Such a list was compiled recently by CPAS for the PCST Network. I have copied it below for the benefit of those who might be interested. If you would like to read any of these thesis abstracts, please get in touch with me.
 
 Kind regards,
 Sean.
