With the summer season approaching, the media team is sourcing experts available to comment in the media on their area of expertise.
In the media world, summer is typically a slower time with less interview subjects around, so topical, quirky research and/or commentary on timely matters has good potential to be picked up in the news.
The SMC media team will be issuing an alert to media on the 1st December with experts who can comment on issues like mental health, terrorism, climate, retail trends, road toll, health and nutrition, weather patterns, bushfires, addiction and more - you name it, they'll feature it.
The alerts include a list of Monash experts on different topics/issues, with a mobile phone number and Monash email address. Here's an example of a past alert to provide context and an example expert from last year:
Christmas spending: economic impacts and trends
Dr Rodney Maddock, Department of Economics
Contact details: mobile number or email
If you would like to be included on the alert, please contact Courtney Karayannis in the SMC media team at courtney.karayannis@monash.edu and advise what topics you can comment on.
Please also outline the dates you are available for media interviews so that this can be included.
