PhD and Postdoc Breakfast Club: Communicating your Science

This month in the PPBC: Tap into the World of Science Communication with Us!

The invited speaker, Anna Kathinka Dalland Evans, will talk about effective and practical techniques for communicating your scientific work to diverse audiences. Good communication skills are important for your research collaborations and potential job interviews, as well as for engaging with the wider public beyond academia. Engaging in public outreach can open doors to unexpected opportunities. Additionally, Kathinka will offer some useful advice when talking to the press, along with some writing tips for crafting popular science stories if you're eager to share your research but don’t quite know where to start. Dare to take a step outside your comfort zone and talk about your science!
