Elements of a successful scientific talk

Speaker(s): Professors Theresa Lynn and Brian Shuve

Unlike a paper, a talk proceeds synchronously and demands that the speaker provide more explicit reminders of the underlying structure of the presentation to keep the audience engaged. Join us as they lead our discussion on how to give effective talks and what to avoid to prevent ‘losing’ your audience.

Colloquium

Junior and senior physics majors attend our biweekly colloquium series, held on Tuesday afternoons at 4:30 p.m. in Shanahan B460. The talks are open to all students and to the public, and are frequently attended by scientists from the other Claremont Colleges, Cal Poly Pomona, and others. The series features speakers from a broad range of institutions and fields of physics.
