SUMMARY:Scholarly Communication Series for Graduate Students and Postdocs
DESCRIPTION:You are working on solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges. But does the world know? Only by communicating your expertise effectively will people and organizations truly value your work.\nOver the month of January, we invite you to take part in an informative and engaging workshop series led by Let Science Connect – an organization committed to training future leaders with the required skills to make your knowledge accessible for the betterment of society and, in doing so, restore trust in the scientific process.\nBut what if I am not in a STEM-related field? Not to worry! All workshops are tailored to a broad audience of scholars, with key concepts applicable to a variety of contexts and disciplines. You will learn and practise presentation skills applicable to your upcoming talks or conference presentations, your thesis or dissertation defence, or even an upcoming networking or job opportunity – learn how to communicate your research in a way that is digestible and community-oriented.\nSession 1 – Foundations of Science Communications (Jan. 16)\nSession 2 – Pitching your Research (Jan. 23)\nSession 3 – Media Training (Jan. 30)\nWhile consistent participation is encouraged to build off key concepts and attributes, you are also welcome to choose individual sessions that most speak to you.\nWhen: Thursdays, Jan. 16, 23 and 30 from 10 to 11:30 a.m.\nRegistration is required: register\nFacilitators:\nPrativa Baral, MPH, PhD\nBaral (she/her) is an epidemiologist, a global health consultant, and an expert in global health security, health systems resilience and health emergencies, operating at the nexus of epidemiology, policy and advocacy. She has consulted for the World Bank, the WHO, the UN, the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and the Government of Canada, and has been featured in various media outlets, including CBC, CTV, the Gazette, the World Economic Forum and Forbes. She strongly believes in bridging science communication gaps between academia and the rest of the world and does so through various efforts, including as an instructor in media communications of public health at Johns Hopkins School of Public Health.\nJasmine Mah, MD, MSc, PhD\nMah (she/her) is a physician and researcher who cares for older adults in geriatric medicine. She is a Canadian Medical Association Young Leader, a recipient of the Association of Faculties of Medicine Learner Changemaker Award and a winner of Dalhousie University’s Three-Minute Thesis. She has been featured in SaltWire, Conversation Canada, CBC, CTV and Global News. She straddles the worlds of clinical, academic, policy and not-for-profits, and firmly believes in equipping others with the knowledge and skills to succeed in advocating for their needs.\nMichelle Liu, P.Eng, JD, MASc, LEED-GA\nLiu (they/them) is a lawyer and professional engineer working in law, technology and policy spaces. As a queer, non-binary, racialized and neurodivergent person, Liu’s focus across their undertakings is on using their subject matter knowledge and lived experience to influence individuals, organizations and systems to advance social justice. Liu’s speaking, activism, and policy advisory work has touched over 160 events, documents and organizations. Liu’s doctoral research, for which they received both the Vanier Canada Graduate Scholarship and the Pierre Elliott Trudeau Foundation Scholarship, uses sociolegal frameworks to understand the relationship between technological designs and the dominant norms in STEM sectors such as masculinity and meritocracy.\n
