The Dementia Researcher Salon is a weekly community webinar to discuss careers and research topics. These sessions combine livestreams, guest speakers and group online chat to exchange ideas, challenge, influence, inspire and educate.

Presenting your research effectively is a key skill in academia, whether you're at a conference, seminar, or defence - or talking to a lay audience. When presenting your research, several issues can arise that might challenge the effectiveness of your communication or the reception of your work. In this Salon session we have two speakers to share their tips, and talk through their own experiences of presenting in different circumstances. As always in the Salon we will be asking you to also share your advise, and discuss the issues.

Programme

The format of the event is a 30 minute livestream where the speakers will each present their thoughts on this topic for 10 minutes each, the host will then ask questions and the livestream will end. The speakers will then join the online chat and interact with the audience, answering questions and giving those who attended a chance to share their thoughts on the topic.
