Conveying Technical Information for Non-Experts

Researchers in the biomedical sciences must often explain technically-complex material to non-experts, with ‘non-experts’ comprising diverse individuals including collaborators, new lab members, or audiences at a conference talk. In this workshop, we will discuss best practices for tailoring the communication of technical information with Dr. Casey Greene who leads the Integrative Genomics Laboratory. Attendees will learn and practice these important communication skills, and benefit from the advice from a BGS faculty member with extensive experience!

All graduate students are welcome. This event grows out of concerns in the Neuroscience department and so may be most useful to students in related fields.

Counts toward the CTL Teaching Certificate.
