Catchup – Salon – Presenting your Research 101
31/07/2024 @ 8:00 pm - 9:00 pm

A weekly gathering to discuss careers and research topics, inspired by 17th and 18th century salons from Paris, with a modern twist. These sessions combine livestreams, guest speakers and group chat to exchange ideas, challenge, influence, inspire and educate.
In this session we talk about Presenting your Research 101.
Presenting your research effectively is a key skill in academia, whether you’re at a conference, seminar, or defense – or talking to a lay audience. When presenting your research, several issues can arise that might challenge the effectiveness of your communication or the reception of your work. In this Salon session we have two speakers to share their tips, and talk through their own experiences of presenting in different circumstances. As always in the Salon we will be asking you to also share your advise, and discuss the issues.
