Workshop: Improv(e) your science communication

• Do you want to hone your presentation skills?
• Do you want to be able to explain your science to both experts and a lay audience?
• Do you want to get a grip on those nerves you feel in front of an audience?
• And do you want to learn all this while having a lot of fun?

This interactive workshop, organized by Y-NCK, is the place for you!

During the workshop, we will improve our science communication together through techniques from improvisational theater and storytelling. From lab meetings and conference talks to elevator pitches and answering that tricky question at a party (So… ‘what do you do?’), these skills will come in handy every day, both in the lab and away from the bench. Plus, you’ll have the chance to get to know your fellow researchers during the workshop and at the drinks afterwards.

Participation is limited to 20 people, so sign up as soon as possible to secure your spot!
