Bruce Margon is an astronomer, Hubble expert, and vice chancellor of research at the University of California-Santa Cruz. As a champion for the Hubble Telescope, he spent many years sharing the wonder of this window on deep space through interviews in major national media outlets, such as the Washington Post and NPR.
"Dr. Margon is particularly adept in delivering information to non scientists and others, particularly the nation's decision makers," said James M. Dubinsky, who heads the professional writing program at Virginia Tech."
"We are pleased to have him visit because we believe he has much to teach professional communicators, scientists--particularly publicly supported researchers at institutions like Virginia Tech, and graduate students."
