FameLab Masterclasses
My aim is to combine giving the talented scientists who reach the Famelab final an idea of why and how they could communicate science to the public. To do this I draw them into discussing what are the channels that are available to them
Free download of “Why and how to communicate your research”
My reason for doing this is that it has become clear that it is very often FameLab Alumni who go on to create a science communication culture both within and outside their own country
I then add into the mix tips and hints about the most effective ways of taking science to a family audience in a public space before getting the participants to think about how they might take their own research topic to a public audience and the challenges they might have to overcome.
The next sessions are designed to get the participant to develop their story telling skills as well as some stage craft that they need to make high impact presentations
The final sessions of the event are focussed on each finalists preparation for the Final with feedback from myself and their peers
