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. These workshops have led to a published book that summarizes the exercises and serves as a step-by-step guide to Finding Your Research Voice – Storytelling and Theatre Skills for Bringing Your Presentation to Life. It is fully accessible through the Cornell Library System. \n \n“There are faculty who give terrible talks\, and some who make captivating\, engaging talks. I want to be in the latter category.

Don’t worry about professional quality\, it can be done informally on your computer with Zoom. Make sure the audio can be heard. Ideally your slides are visible and so are you as you speak. 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. Choose the research/scholarly/business idea that you are most passionate about as the subject for your talk. Make sure you do not disclose any proprietary information (hopefully you consider this with every talk).\nSend the video link before August 9 to confirm your attendance to Itai Cohen (itai.cohen@cornell.edu) and Susi Varvayanis (sv27@cornell.edu).

We will use your Elevator Pitch to hone your core message and to work on your performance skills. 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.

SUMMARY:Vaccination Conversations with Scientists (VaCS)
DESCRIPTION:VaCS connects scientists with community members to engage in conversations with people in the Ithaca and surrounding communities about the COVID-19 vaccine and other critical vaccinations. It began in 2021 as a grad student-led initiative as part of ASAP\, and is now transitioning to become a non-profit organization. \nTraditional public health messaging alone is insufficient to promote uptake of COVID-19 vaccines; among New York State residents\, less than 12 % are completely up to date with their COVID-19 vaccinations. VaCS members help build trust between scientists and the community by initiating compassionate conversations about vaccines with people in our local area to promote educated heath decisions. \nIf you attended ASAP’s first event this year–a really interesting discussion with science communication educator and former Congressional Chief of Staff Mark Bayer–Mark talked a lot about how to leverage your position as a scientist to combat misinformation. You can put this into practice for a good cause by volunteering with VaCS! No specific vaccine or immunology background is necessary; we provide robust training and materials on vaccine and COVID-19 science\, combatting misinformation\, and science communication. \nGrad Student & Staff Orientation Meeting\nWeill Hall Room 226 on Sept. 19 @ 6pm\nLearn more about VaCS and how you can get involved. For more info\, register on CampusGroups here\, or visit the VaCS website. Hope to see you there! \nKara Rode Webber\, VaCS Co-Director \nWhat does VaCS do?\nVaCS is a collaboration between several county departments of health and Cornell Advancing Science and Policy\, with funding support from the Provost’s Office. Our goal is to engage the community and answer questions about vaccine safety and COVID-19. We reach people through phone-banking (remote/hybrid) and tabling/canvassing (in-person). \nWho can join?\nScientists of any level are welcome: grad students\, postdocs\, advanced undergraduates\, laboratory staff\, and faculty! Scientists at the Ithaca Campus and at Weill Cornell are all invited to join. \nWhat is the time commitment?\nIt’s up to you! We expect that you will attend at least 1 event per month\, however your commitment is flexible. You can also get more involved by joining VaCS leadership to help with behind-the-scenes work\, such as organizing events and managing the data. \nWhat are some types of outreach opportunities?\n\ntabling at community events\nphone-banking (virtual–held twice a week)\ndoor-to-door canvassing\ninformation sessions\n\nWhat has VaCS accomplished so far?\nWe have made over 10\,000 phone calls\, have a network of over 100 Cornell scientists\, and hosted numerous tabling and canvassing events jointly with the Tompkins County Health Department\, Cayuga Medical Center\, and health departments from surrounding counties. \nWhile it might seem like an impossible task\, 29% of our conversations with unvaccinated people have actually increased the self-reported likelihood of vaccination! \nYou do NOT need to be an expert in COVID-19! We will provide training to prepare you on the science\, as well as communication strategies to deal with controversial topics.
