This online workshop is designed to equip students and EMCR scientists with the necessary skills to communicate their research across different formats effectively. Speakers will discuss tips and tricks for scientific communication and provide insight from their own experiences and expertise.
Our panel members each bring a wealth of diverse experience in effective scientific communication and will share their advice and guidance on three key topics critical for communicating effectively at scientific conferences, followed by a Q&A session with the webinar audience.
We especially recommend this workshop to all VIIN students and ECRs who plan to submit an abstract for this year's VIIN Young Investigator Symposium.
Register here by 5pm Monday 14th July to receive webinar details
