You will learn to visually communicate your complex research ideas and results so your messages are effortlessly understood by any specific audience (scientists or non scientists). We will not focus on aesthetics but on how you can use knowledge on human visual perception to create effective scientific images, posters, and slides. You will design a graphical abstract of your research, discuss it with peer scientists in a group exercise, and get actionable advice and feedback on your own images. It is an immersive workshop, comprehensive, structured, memorable, easy to follow, useful and fun. |

Instructor |
Dr. Jernej Zupanc, Founder of Seyens Ltd. My goal is to help scientists effectively communicate your ideas and findings and make an impact with your research. Teaching and communication are my professional passions. I read and study ecletically and am always looking for approaches from different fields that can be easily applied by scientists. I distill the principles and practices into easy to understand and fun learning experiences. Time is our most valuable resource and I want the time spent in my training to be the best long-term investment a scientist can make. I've worked with over 4'500 researchers from 130 excellent research institutions and hope to work with you too. |
