Course Description
In this workshop, you'll learn how to translate a complex research topic into a clear message and adapt it for various stage formats. Together, we'll develop strategies for communicating your research effectively, reaching diverse audiences, and keeping your audience's attention until the end. Through practical exercises, some inspired by improvisational theater, you'll learn to empathize with your audience, develop creative ideas, and enhance your stage presence. You'll also have the opportunity to create short presentations and receive feedback.
The main goals of this interactive training are:
- Precise communication of own research topic
- Improved understanding of different target groups
- Increased audience attention through storytelling
- Improved stage presence
- Improved understanding and use of emotions (including nervousness)
The Trainer
The workshop will be led by Dr. Alexander Lammers, who has worked in interdisciplinary and international research teams for several years. During this time, he took part in expeditions from the Arctic to the Kalahari Desert and began to bring his research findings and experiences to the stage. Today, he is a full-time science communicator who regularly appears on stage in various formats and supports scientists in workshops on how to present their own research in the best possible way. More information can be found on his website.
