Sign up now for the workshop “Beyond Your Academic Bubble: Making Your Research Heard,” led by Dr. Çisem Gürel, on Thursday, March 5, 10:30–12:00, held in the ISS classroom 1.31 and online. Learn practical ways to explain your research beyond academia, use AI to support science communication with a lay audience, and develop a short, clear research pitch. Concrete techniques, minimal theory.
By the end of this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Identify why and when communicating their research beyond academia can be useful for impact, funding, and career development
- Distinguish key differences between academic communication and communication with non-expert audiences
- Recognize common risks and pitfalls in science communication (e.g., oversimplification, hype, misinterpretation)
- Apply practical techniques to make their research clear, accurate, and engaging for lay audiences
- Select suitable formats and channels (e.g., popular science articles, blogs, social media) for their communication goals
- Deliver a concise, audience-appropriate pitch of their own research and get feedback from other participants
- Use AI tools to support different forms of science communication (e.g., text, speech)
- More information
This session is for early researchers, PhD candidates and (nearly) graduated students. Registration closes one week before the workshop.
