<p class="MsoNormal">Portal to the Public (PoP) helps organizations connect public audiences with the research and innovation happening in their own communities through dialogue with local scientists and engineers. Whether launching new initiatives or strengthening
existing programs, organizations can adapt the PoP framework to meet a variety of institutional goals. PoP’s flexible framework has been adopted by over 50 science centers, universities, zoos, museums, and other groups that contribute to the Portal to the
Public Network. <u></u><u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><u></u> <u></u></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are now seeking new sites to join the Portal to the Public Network through our February 27-March 1, 2017 training workshop in Seattle, WA. Some scholarships are available. Learn more at
