PNAS Science Sessions

Booking Overview

A short-form scientific research interview series featuring researchers, National Academy members, and policymakers discussing findings published in PNAS and broader scientific developments. Credible pitches include researchers with notable PNAS-published work, senior academic specialists, and policymakers connected to consequential science issues; booking is likely very high difficulty because appearances are closely tied to PNAS editorial content.
