Giving a presentation puts you on public display. In many ways your research reputation will be enhanced or diminished. Thus, effective communication of scientific knowledge is an essential component of any career in science. Increasingly, the ability to present one’s research in English is becoming ever more important for scientists of all disciplines.
Talks at a conference or an internal seminar must convince the audience that the work presented is important, valid, and that it matters to them. Preparing and giving effective talks requires a content that is worth the attention of the audience, a sound knowledge of English and excellent presentations skills.Seminar
