Sigma Xi
Researchers and students can get science communication coaching from professional science communicator Darcy J. Gentleman. He will host free webinars for Sigma Xi on October 1 and October 8 about how to craft better science talks. These webinars are open to everyone, though space is limited and higher priority will be given to those who are registered for the Sigma Xi Annual Meeting and Student Research Conference as well as members, affiliates, and explorers. At the conference, Gentleman will lead a workshop on The Principles of Slides-Based Talks and offer just-in-time, personalized advice for research presenters.
