Communication Workshop Series

Presentation and public speaking skills are addressed through a series of workshops offered annually in collaboration with Language ConnectED.

The large group seminars introduce postdocs to an effective organizational structure for technical presentations, teach them how to develop and practice concise "hallway" mini-presentations, and explore design strategies for effectively communicating scientific information.

The smaller presentation workshops serve as a "communication laboratory," allowing postdocs to refine their speaking, presentation, and interpersonal communication skills. These sessions provide a unique opportunity to present scientific work to fellow biomedical professionals in a supportive, educational setting. Participants also benefit from gaining a deeper and broader understanding of their colleagues’ research.
