Engaged Researcher Online - FameLab Communications Training
FameLab is an international science communication competition where STEM researchers are given just three minutes to talk about their research with a public audience - without a presentation, just props you can carry yourself!
We host the Cambridge Regional Finals and our winner goes on to compete in FameLab UK (and hopefully the International FameLab Finals at Cheltenham Science Festival too!). As part of the competition we offer a short training session to develop your communication skills and help you find the content, clarity and charisma the FameLab judges look for!
Please register your interest in being part of Cambridge FameLab, including this communications training session at: https://www.cheltenhamfestivals.com/science-/famelab/famelab-uk/
FameLab is open to anyone over 21 researching or working in STEM. For more details see: https://www.cheltenhamfestivals.com/science-/famelab/eligibility/
FameLab is trying to find people who want to talk about their science, not the people who have already shifted into science communication or promotion as a full-time career. Entrants must be studying or working in science, engineering, technology, medicine or mathematics. Criteria here; https://www.cheltenhamfestivals.com/science-/famelab/eligibility/
Good internet connection: the course will be held on Microsoft Teams or Zoom
If you have troubles joining the sessions or have any queries, please contact Selen Etingu-Breslaw (selen.etingubreslaw@admin.cam.ac.uk) or Diogo Gomes (dam74@medschl.cam.ac.uk).
