In episode 28 of the biorevolution podcast Andreas Horchler and Louise von Stechow talk about the science communication. Scientists often need to get our message out, during a pitch, a presentation at a scientific conference or in a grant application. To engage your audience, scientists can take a lead from the story telling principles used in fiction. In this episode we discuss story telling techniques drawing on sources such as Lisa Crohn’s story genius and Ted talks and translate those to scientific communication.
