Description

Ever sat through a talk packed with interesting science but struggled to stay engaged? You're not alone. Good science can easily get lost behind complicated slides. This session we will explore how taking a creative and artistic approach in your scientific presentations can significantly make your talk more engaging and memorable. We'll discuss common slide pitfalls, and explore simple, practical ways to improve your visuals, colour schemes, and storytelling (no fancy art skills required!). Join in to see how thinking creatively can help you better connect with your audience and leave them just as excited about your science as you are!
