ESP Work Groups
Communication Work Group
One of the core goals of the ESP is to promote photobiology and all the scientific activities related to photobiology among its community and the public. At this purpose, the Communication Work Group focuses on maximizing the reach of photobiology and the activities of the Society by curating the ESP website and its social media accounts.
The Communication Work Group is also constantly looking for seminars, activities, and job positions of potential interest for ESP members, which are regularly advertised on the various communication channels. Get in touch with us if you would like to spread out exciting news such as job positions, publications, and much more!
