Perfecting your elevator pitch: UK EQUATOR Lightning Workshop 2020
Join this free one-hour practical, interactive workshop from the UK EQUATOR Centre. In our Lightning Workshops series, our methodology, writing, and communication experts cover all of the essential aspects of writing and publishing your academic research. These sessions are designed for early-career biomedical and clinical researchers.

Whether standing by your conference poster, at a professional networking event, or in the pub, the question is the same: “So, what is it that you do?” Dr Jennifer de Beyer will teach you all the tips and tricks to ensure you have that crucial quick elevator pitch answer ready – all illustrated with a 1 min elevator pitch she used at a recent conference. You’ll work in pairs to prepare a pitch, then practice and perfect it on the group. After this session, you’ll never say “ummmm” again!

Jen is CSM’s science writing, dissemination, and publication specialist. She’s here to help your research reach its full potential through clear, complete writing that targets the right audience. She develops resources on how to write fantastic health research articles and teaches academic writing skills through the UK EQUATOR Centre.

This free workshop is open to University of Oxford, Oxford Brookes, and Oxford University Hospitals staff and students, but we do ask you to book a spot.
