Confident Science Communication

REGISTER
Featured Speaker: Hugh Kearns, PhD, Flinders University, Adelaide, Australia (Speaker Bio)
Description: A lot of hard work and time goes into conducting research and creating presentations. And yet sadly many of us have attended dull presentations, had papers that are never read or had many findings that are never translated into practice. So how do you communicate effectively about your research and its impact?
In this workshop you will learn strategies for:
-- Developing a communication strategy
-- Confidently delivering your message to your audience
-- Making your presentation or paper accessible without dumbing it down
-- Developing your one minute pitch
-- Dealing with the discomfort of it all
