Designing Science Presentations guides scientists of any discipline in the design of compelling science communication. Most scientists never receive formal training in the design, delivery, and evaluation of scientific communication, yet these skills are essential for publishing in high-quality journals, soliciting funding, attracting lab personnel, and advancing a career.

This clear, readable volume will fill that gap and provide visually intensive guidance at every step-from the construction of original figures to the presentation and delivery of those figures in papers, slideshows, posters, and websites. It provides pragmatic advice on the preparation and delivery of exceptional scientific presentations; demonstrates hundreds of visually striking presentation techniques, giving readers inspiration for creating their own; and is structured so that readers can easily find answers to particular questions.

Features clear headings for each section indicating its message, highlighted with graphic illustrations
Provides clear and concise explanations of design principles traditionally taught in design or visualization courses
Includes examples of high-quality figures, page layouts, slides, posters, and webpages to aid readers' own presentations
Numerous "before and after" examples to illustrate the contrast between poor and outstanding presentations

Industry Reviews

"This is a well-organized, easy-to-read guide full of images and graphics for scientists in any discipline at any level of their careers. Whether you are a student who needs to present your research to your lab for the first time or a seasoned professor who has made several PowerPoint lectures, this guide provides useful examples for people to brainstorm and rethink how they want to communicate their ideas in a clear way. I have definitely been guilty of creating some of the "bad examples" (sometimes unknowingly), but the book gives many "good examples" that I hope to follow for future science presentations. Following this guide will definitely help people in the science and healthcare fields communicate their ideas to their target audiences more effectively." -- (c) Doody's Review Service, 2020, Lisa Lian, DMD, reviewer, expert opinion
