Event Link • Summary • #ArtYourResearch
Join the SciComm Collective for an interactive workshop on how to effectively communicate your research! We’ll be focusing on concise oral and written communication and use of social media platforms. The workshop will be facilitated by science communicators Dr. Diane Dechief (she/her; Faculty Lecturer, McGill Writing Centre) and Alexandra Gellé (she/her; McGill Chemistry PhD Candidate & Pint of Science Canada Director).
Snacks will be provided! Gluten- and nut-free options will be made available.
The event is free and open to all graduate students. Spots are limited; please register to confirm your attendance.
Accessibility
We intend for this event to be an accessible, inclusive, and harassment-free space for all. If you have any questions and/or additional accessibility concerns, do not hesitate to contact us at Info@SciCommCollective.com.
The event is held at the McIntyre Medical Building, on top of a sloped hill. Adapted mobility drop-off/pick-up can be made right in front of the building entrance. An automatic door push plate can be found 2 meters from the rightmost door.
Room 206/7 is located on the second floor of the building. Elevators with wide doors are available. The room has mobile chairs and tables that can be adjusted to make space as needed.
Unfortunately, gender-inclusive washrooms are not available in the building.
Reserved seating will be made available upon request.
The presentation by the workshop facilitators will be live-captioned.
Land Acknowledgement
McGill University is situated on the traditional territory of the Kanien’kehà:ka, a place which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst nations. We recognize and respect the Kanien’kehà:ka as the traditional custodians of the lands and waters on which we are holding our event. We are both grateful for the opportunity to meet on this land and committed to remembering and honouring the Indigenous legacy that has existed here in an effort to resist its systematic invisibilisation.
