Systematic as they otherwise can be in their work, they go at it intuitively or haphazardly, with much good will but seldom good results. In this talk, Dr. Doumont proposes a systematic way to prepare and deliver an oral presentation: he covers structure, slides, and delivery, as wall as stage fright. Dr. Doumont is an engineer from the Louvain School of Engineering and a Ph.D. in applied physics from Stanford University, who now specializes in communications for engineers and scientists in institutes, universities, and companies. He is author of the book <i>Trees, Maps, and Theorems: Effective Communication for Rational Minds</i>.</span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;"><br></span></div><div><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;"><span style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;" data-mce-style="font-size: 12.0pt; font-family: Times;"></span></span><pre>_______________________________________________<br>Seminars mailing list<br><span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT56_com_zimbra_email">Seminars@whoi.edu</span><br>To unsubscribe, please go to your email account settings.<br>To have announcements posted, send a request to <span class="Object" id="OBJ_PREFIX_DWT57_com_zimbra_email">seminars-editor@whoi.edu</span></pre></div><div><br></div><div>-- <br></div><div><span></span><div>Diana Kenney<br>Science Writer/Editor, Communications<br>Administrative Director, Logan Science Journalism Program<br>Marine Biological Laboratory<br>7 MBL Street<br>Woods Hole, MA 02543<br>508-289-7139<br>dkenney@mbl.edu<br><a href="http://www.mbl.edu" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.mbl.edu">MBL Homepage</a> | <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mblscience" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.facebook.com/mblscience">Facebook</a> | <a href="https://twitter.com/MBLScience" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://twitter.com/MBLScience">Twitter</a> | <a href="http://blog.mbl.edu/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://blog.mbl.edu/">Blog</a> | <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKUBiBDXmMg" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QKUBiBDXmMg">Video</a><br></div><span></span><br></div></div></div><div><br></div></div></body></html>
