SciLine is a free, philanthropically funded service for journalists with a singular mission: to help reporters include more research-backed evidence in their news stories. Based at the nonprofit American Association for the Advancement of Science in Washington, DC, SciLine hosts several activities including journalist trainings, media briefings, a “matching service” that connects reporters to knowledgeable, articulate scientists and media training for scientists.
Rick Weiss is SciLine's director and a former journalist who served a 15-year stint covering science at The Washington Post.
Tori Fosheim is a Ph.D. neuroscientist who is part of the SciLine team that identifies knowledgeable, articulate scientists willing to be interviewed by reporters who come to SciLine for help on stories.
