Communicating Your Science: A Genetics Society Workshop

Opportunity for PhD students and Post-doc Workshop - Newport, United Kingdom

An important part of science is getting your results and ideas across to others, through papers, presentations, theses, grant proposals, conversations and interviews. Your audience may include specialists in the field, those from other disciplines, industry, or the general public.

How can you best communicate your science?

This workshop brings together experts in different fields - writers, broadcasters, publishers, industrialists, computer scientists, and presenters - to help you explore and develop your communication skills. Working together with others on the course you will learn how to structure presentations, develop writing skills, bridge disciplines and have hands-on experience of broadcasting.

Tutors include:
Armand Leroi (author, broadcaster and professor of Evolutionary and Developmental Biology, Imperial College, London)
Chris Smith (broadcaster, medical doctor, lecturer in Virology, Cambridge University)
Rebecca Stott (novelist, historian and professor of English Literature and Creative Writing, University of East Anglia)
Ana Marques (expert in experimental and computational genomics, Oxford University
