SUMMARY:Jory Weintraub - Telling Your Science Story | Hybrid | GES Colloquium
DESCRIPTION:Colloquium Home | Zoom Registration | GES Video Library (current) | Video Archives | Podcast | LinkedIn | Newsletter \nSPRING SEMINAR SERIES\nTelling Your Science Story: The Power of Narrative in Research Communication\nWithers 331 + Zoom | This short\, interactive workshop will explore why and how to use storytelling to communicate your research\, and give you a chance to practice and receive feedback. \n\nDownload seminar flyer\nDownload presentation slides\n\nJory Weintraub\, PhD\nDirector of Science Engagement in the Office of University Interdisciplinary Programs at NC State University | Profile \nJory Weintraub is the Director of Science Engagement in the Office of University Interdisciplinary Programs (OUIP) and an adjunct assistant professor in the Department of Communication. Previous positions have included co-PI and Director of Professional Development and Training for the NSF-funded Center for Advancing Research Impact in Society\, Science Communication Director and Senior Lecturing Fellow with Duke University’s Initiative for Science and Society\, and Director of Education and Outreach at the National Evolutionary Synthesis Center. He serves on the advisory board of the Triangle Center for Evolutionary Medicine and previously served on the board of directors of Science Communicators of North Carolina. \nHe has a BS in biochemistry/cell biology from the University of California\, San Diego\, and a Ph.D. in immunology from UNC Chapel Hill\, and received an NSF postdoctoral fellowship in STEM education/outreach. His professional interests include STEM outreach\, science communication\, societal impacts of research and diversity\, equity and inclusion in STEM. \nAbstract\nOnce upon a time\, in labs and lecture halls far\, far away\, scientists were trained to avoid stories\, anecdotes\, and “making it personal” when talking about their work. However empirical evidence demonstrates that these approaches can be the most effective ways to communicate research to non-experts. This short\, interactive workshop will examine the elements of a compelling story\, explore how our brains respond to storytelling\, and introduce a simple\, fun template for telling the story of your science in just three sentences. Participants will have the opportunity to practice science storytelling and give/receive feedback\, and as a result they will improve their science communication skills and live happily ever after—the end. \n\nThe Genetic Engineering and Society (GES) Colloquium is a seminar series that brings in speakers to present and stimulate discussion on a variety of topics related to existing and proposed biotechnologies and their place within broader societal changes. \nGES Colloquium is jointly taught by Drs. Katie Barnhill and Nourou Barry\, and we’re featuring a mostly student-led seminar series. Students will be taking the lead in identifying\, inviting\, and hosting most of the speakers\, providing a great opportunity for them to build their networks and grow as professionals. \nTo support their efforts\, we encourage you to join our in-person seminars\, which will now take place in Withers 331. Your presence makes a big difference in creating a supportive environment for our students. \nRemember\, we regularly post colloquium seminars as videos on Panopto and on our GES Lectures podcast\, allowing you to revisit or catch up on these recordings at your convenience. \nPlease subscribe to the GES newsletter and LinkedIn for updates.
