Do you want to communicate your research professionally, convincingly, and in a natural, authentic way?
This is a workshop in authentic public speaking. It will help you become more aware of your personal presentation style, your strengths and weaknesses, and support you to try out new ways of communicating that can help you get your scientific message across more effectively.
