Conclusions without supporting data are just claims. More and more researchers are sharing their data to improve reproducibility, get more citations and spark collaborations, yet the process can be daunting. We will explore the benefits of sharing data, as well as any concerns you might have, and give you practical tips and tools to ensure that you make the most of the opportunity to open up your data for the world.
Rhetoric is the language that we use to enhance the impact of what we say. It can be applied in all instances when we communicate, including scientific writing and oral presentations.
This one-day workshop will be looking at the theories and skills of rhetoric, with opportunities to analyse, experiment with and experience their impact on communication. Focussing on writing and oral presentations, this workshop will look at the broad application of rhetoric from the principles of Aristotle, through to their contemporary use by figures such as Barack Obama. After learning about some tools and techniques, participants will look at examples and case studies, and apply them to examples of their own writing and oral presentation with group peer review and feedback.
Details of Information covered:- • Aristotle and Rhetoric (Ethos, Logos, Pathos) • The Canons of Rhetoric (Invention, Arrangement, Style, Memory, Delivery) • Tricks and strategies (repetition, power of 3 etc) • Looking in detail at 4 different speeches and what makes them successful (Ken Robinson, Steve Jobs, Martin Luther King, and a TED talk of a Biochemist)
This evening seminar will focus on what it takes to be a good leader and team manager in a research group – from recruiting the right people, through communication skills, building professional relationships and motivating others, to problem and conflict resolution. Researchers at different stages of their career will share their own experiences and Sharon Saunders will describe training available for University members as well as sharing preliminary findings of what advice new group leaders give to postdocs. The questions and discussions will be followed by a drinks reception, providing the opportunity for ongoing discussion with the speakers and attendees.
Working Across Cultures: A Practical Introduction to Intercultural Communication
Have you considered how culture may be influencing your professional relationships and interactions? Do you know which factors to consider when dealing with other nationalities? Are you using to your advantage what you may have already noticed or experienced? The workplace today is truly international in composition and intercultural competency is an invaluable and positive addition to your skill set.
This half day session is an introduction to the field of intercultural communication with an emphasis on practical application and developing self-awareness. It is a fun, engaging, relevant topic that will enable you to work more confidently and effectively with any nationality. You will become familiar with key variations across national cultures, so that you can recognise if/when and why cross-cultural misunderstandings are occurring, as well how to be more flexible in your approach.
You can expect a mixture of trainer-led content, as well as interactive exercises in pairs and small groups
This day workshop will help you publish your research paper in the most effective way, so that many people will read, cite and build on it, thus progressing your career. The course is for PhD students and postdocs at any stage, whether or not you have already written or published a paper. It focuses on how to write your research paper, how to navigate the peer review process and how to choose a journal for it.
