I wanted to let you know about a cool thing we're doing this summer.
โ
The first ever Research Presentation summer camp is here!
โ
We've not done this before, so I'm all excited and a bit nervy.
โ
You've maybe done one of our workshops before, but, we have others! And for the first time, I'm running them as open events this august.
โ
Here's the plan
We're run our two most popular workshops over the summer and help you become a better presenter ahead of the next academic year.
โ
So if you are starting teaching, going to conferences for the first time, want to explore new and creative ways to communicate your research, then this is for you.
โ
First, we're doing No More Death by PPT - the art and craft of doing slides that aren't shit.
August 7th 10am - 12pm GMT
NO MORE DEATH BY PPT
A practical guide to making sure your slides aren't shit.
โ
- Why bad slides are bad and what to do about them
- How to present data heavy slides
- A host of tips and tricks for easier, faster slides
Small things can make all the difference, and knowing how to present your data effectively can have huge impact on engagement and impact.

"Excellent workshop extremely helpful, engaging and very, very relevant to the challenges I am facing in my PhD. Thank you, Duncan, please come back for more". - participant from Durham Uni
โ
It's pretty much my favourite to teach - don't tell the others.

Storytelling for Research!
August 12th 10am - 12pm GMT
Your Research Already Has Great Stories - Let's Find Them
Learn to weave narratives that make your work memorable and engaging
โ
This workshop shows you how to find the stories already embedded in your research
- Discover why stories work
- learn to find narratives in any research project
- master techniques for making complex concepts accessible
