The Public Face of Psychological Science

December 2 - 4, 2005

The theme of this inaugural conference is The Public Face of Psychological Science. The way psychological science presents its results and its value to the public, to policymakers and to research funding agencies is critical to the future of our discipline, and recent events suggest the need to hone our efforts as a collective and as individuals. By bringing together psychologists who are key leaders in science, we can develop a common agenda that will advance psychological science and help secure our future. We know that you will have much to contribute and learn through your participation, and your guidance will help shape our future actions.
