We need to talk - requests from the press

Researchers are often approached directly without the press consulting us first.

A guideline is intended to help the researchers approached in dealing with these requests. It was compiled by the Young Academy of Sciences and Humanities at the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Sciences and Humanities and the German National Academy of Sciences Leopoldina.

In addition to five key points for general orientation, it contains practical tips and a checklist.
