COMMUNICATE YOUR RESEARCH
PhD Students, Post Docs and PIs, Half or Full day workshop, delivered with Dr Joanna Ramasawmy
Communicating the basic ideas behind your science can be difficult when you become an expert. You will learn to identify key message around which you can construct a narrative appropriate for a range of audiences and contexts. We use a range of practical exercises, group and individual reflection and one-to-one feedback.

Training focusing on how to use your voice, make a message the most simple it can be, and working out your audience's needs. Can be tailored to your group.
