    Apologies for cross-posting, National Institute of Statistical Sciences (NISS) Academic Affiliates Committee is holding a virtual meet-up on November 30, from 1:30 - 3 pm ET, on "How to Present Your Research".

    Presenting technical research clearly in front of a large audience is an essential and extremely valuable skill set for a statistician. Whether you are applying for a position in academia or industry or presenting your work at a conference or client meeting, it is important to ensure that we connect with our audience and effectively communicate the key ideas.

    Our panel of four statisticians with expertise in communicating statistical ideas to diverse audiences will share their insights in this webinar. They will draw on their prior experiences and discuss good practices and tips when presenting to technical and non-technical audiences. 

    The four distinguished and very exciting panelists that will present short comments on this topic include:

    John Bailer (University Distinguished Professor and Chair, Department of Statistics, Miami University)

    James Booth (Professor and Director of Graduate Studies, Department of Statistics and Data Science, Cornell University)

    Susan Ellenberg (Professor of Biostatistics, Medical Ethics and Health Policy and Interim Chair, Department of Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Informatics, University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine)

    Regina Nuzzo (Senior Advisor for Statistics Communication and Media Innovation, American Statistical Association)

    Moderator: Kate Crespi (Professor of Biostatistics, University of California Los Angeles)


    The meet-up is free to all and will use Zoom. Registration is required. Please go to https://www.niss.org/events/niss-academic-affiliate-meetup-how-present-your-research to get more information and register for this event.
