Scientists and journalists are both seekers and sharers of knowledge, but they speak what might as well be two languages. The communicators honored with the Schmidt Awards at National Academies not only speak both languages but also bridge them. Congratulations to this year's winners.

When Judy Woodruff got her 1st job, a producer said, "With legs like those, how could I not hire you?" She was a "coffee girl" + a "weather girl." 52 yrs later, she's leaving PBS NewsHour's anchor desk one of the most trusted journalists of her generation. nytimes.com/2022/11/11/sty…

I feel self-conscious about drawing attention to myself, but I'm immensely thankful to Schmidt Science Fellows for highlighting my profile. Hopefully, this short film can show other minority students that scientists can come from anywhere and look like them.

Scientists aboard Schmidt Ocean’s Falkor (too) journeyed to the coast of Panama to study the movement of microplastics in the deep sea. Thank you to Ben Tracy and CBS Mornings for spotlighting how marine science is helping us better understand—and protect—our Ocean.
