Research Progress BIOL 9004-001 (49443): The goal of this course is to give students the tools and advice to help them improve their scientific communication. It will also provide students with the opportunity to practice those new skills by giving talks about their research and reviewing and commenting on talks of other students. We will focus on three types of talks: elevator pitches, lightning talks, and conference talks.
