The art of communicating truth behind the crude science for information of the public through print and online media platforms is called science journalism. It is an important tool to inform the public on the results of research. However, it comes with a responsibility to meet the expectations of both public and scientific community. Science journalism connects science to communication business model in media industry, and its expansion has increased the career options for people in science. Though a few institutions and research centres have integrated science journalism in their academic programmes, it is not sufficient to fill the huge gap of trained manpower in this area in India.References
