episode 87: When Scientists Present (a conversation with Mike Morrison)

• The scientific community is full of presenting. But the world of scientific presentation is different than corporate presentation – something we uncover in the first 2 minutes of conversation with our guest, Mike Morrison, who has been making some waves in the world of scientific presentation thanks to a viral video he created on his proposals for improving the scientific Poster Presentation. This episode we talk about scientific presentations, content and what makes a good presentation – no matter what industry.
