Communications

Communications in ESD are a collaborative effort between division operations staff and centralized LBNL resources such as the Public Affairs group and LBNL library. The division supports graphic illustrations, poster priting, editing, writing and web development through the Creative Communications Group. Public Affairs and External relations are lead by the LBNL Public Affairs group.

ESD Creative Communications Group

Graphic illustrations, large format (poster) printing, editing and writing, and web development are available within ESD through the Creative Communications Group. The group also maintains the ESD branded poster and presentation templates. Other creative services that are not supplied within the Division can be coordinated through LBNL's Creative Services Office (CSO).  The ESD Group plus CSO offers high-quality products and experience in relating to many of the scientific concepts that need to be conveyed.
