The Science Writers Association of the Rocky Mountains (SWARM) works to create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive community among science writers, communicators, educators, students, and others in the Rocky Mountain region who are interested in writing about science for the public. Through networking, development and other events, we help science writers advance their professional skills. We aim to promote accurate, accessible, and ethical science writing as well as foster the understanding of science and technology and their relevance to society through scientific literacy. We host virtual and in-person events for science writers, organized by a volunteer board, and are a 501(c)(3).

​

Head over to 'join us' to become a SWARM member or to get on our email list. All you need is an interest in science communication in the Rockies.​

​

Elections call! We are currently looking for candidates to run for SWARM's board of directors for a two-year term beginning in October 2026. To run for the board you must be a paid-up member and be located anywhere in the Rockies (loosely defined). If interested, send 2-3 sentences about yourself, your interest in science writing, and your reasons for running for the board to sciwrirockies-at-gmail-dot-com, by August 15.
