Scientific Talks - Excellent Science Requires Excellent Presentation Skills

Giving a presentation puts you on public display. In many ways your research reputation will be enhanced or diminished. Thus, effective communication of scientific knowledge is an essential component of any career in science. Increasingly, the ability to present one’s research in English is becoming ever more important for scientists of all disciplines. This practical two-day course provides key elements for a successful presentation in an international setting. It will cover techniques that can be easily implemented, ranging from structuring a presentation’s content, knowing helpful phrases, creating slides, coping with stage fright to dealing with difficult situations. This training will also help you to build confidence in your presentation style and to improve your specific speaking skills. One of the easiest ways to stand out at an academic conference is to give a remarkable talk.
