It is also the company’s primary location for early stage research through product development efforts and houses several pilot plants to test production scale manufacturing and produce prototypes. \nCoordinated by Cornell Engineering and Careers Beyond Academia

Once you’ve learned how to create a dynamic live performance of your research story\, you may come to enjoy presenting in public. \nThis workshop will intensively work your own research presentation and hone your engaging story through a core message. We incorporate theatrical/improv techniques and video feedback to improve your use of body\, voice\, gesture and to capture wording that resonates with your audience. Many of the exercises are incorporated from the following guidebook: \n \n“There are faculty who give terrible talks\, and some who make captivating\, engaging talks. I want to be in the latter category. That’s why I signed up for this workshop.”–Benjamin Rosche\, PhD student\, Sociology \nThis opportunity is open to PhD students and postdocs in all disciplines\, with priority given to those who are ready to present their research. Time: 9 am to 4 pm Friday Aug.18 and Friday Aug. 25\, with an hour lunch break. You must attend both sessions. Due to the intensive\, personalized\, mentored interactions during the workshop\, participation numbers are limited. \nThis two-day workshop is designed for any grad student or postdoc in the social sciences\, STEM\, humanities and arts disciplines interested in an immersion to improve their research communication skills. \n“We were an image-oriented species way before development of the written word. The way we include pictures in our presentations can determine if a story will bring us together.”–Itai Cohen\, Professor\, Physics \nLearning outcomes for Finding Your Research Voice:\nCreating a Core Message\nApplying the Dramatic Arc\nConnecting with Your Audience\nExpressing Passion for Your Research\nFinding a Great Beginning\nChaptering Your Story\nSignaling the End\nImproving Your Voice\nControlling Your Body Language\nIncorporating Gesture Effectively\nHomework for the Finding Your Research Voice Workshop: \nIn advance of the workshop:\n\nRecord your 10 minute research talk and upload it to YouTube (if you have a previously recorded talk that’s fine\, just the first 10minutes will be viewed). Don’t worry about professional quality\, it can be done informally on your computer with Zoom. Make sure the audio can be heard. Your 10 minute talk should cover something you would present at a conference\, perhaps in a longer format. An hour long talk is often comprised of three separate but linked 10 minute talks.

Make sure you do not disclose any proprietary information (hopefully you consider this with every talk).\nSend the private link by August 10 – DEADLINE EXTENDED TO AUGUST 13 –  (or public if you are using a prior recording) to Itai Cohen (itai.cohen@cornell.edu)\, Kris Behke (kvb24@cornell.edu) and Susi Varvayanis (sv27@cornell.edu).

You may write it down and email it to us ahead of time if you would like feedback prior to the workshop.It should include who you are\, what you do\, what you’ve found\, and why it is important. This is a short persuasive speech about you and your work. It should last no longer than an elevator ride (30 seconds to 2 minutes) and should be carefully crafted to maximize both information and interest during short encounters with important contacts. An elevator pitch is a 3-4 sentence summary of the main point of your talk. Briefly:\n\n\n\n\nIdentify the problem and why it is so important\nExplain why this has not yet been solved\nExplain how you will solve and why you are the person to do it\n\n\n\nFacilitated by:\nKris Behnke\, Innovation Outreach Specialist\nCornell University Center for Technology Licensing\nkvb24@cornell.edu \n  \nItai Cohen\, Professor of Physics\nCornell University\nhttp://cohengroup.lassp.cornell.edu\nitai.cohen@cornell.edu 617-304-2131 \n  \nSusi Varvayanis\, Executive Director\nCareers Beyond Academia\nCornell University Graduate School \ngradcareers@cornell.edu \n  \nRegister now:\nComplete the online registration form. Questions can be directed via email to: sv27@cornell.edu.
