Imagine you are a scientist faced with presenting your research clearly and concisely. Where would you go for help? This book provides the answer. It shows how to use story structure to craft clear, credible presentations. In it you will find exercises to help you give both short and long presentations. Elevator pitches, lightning talks, Three Minute Thesis (3MT®), and conference presentations are all covered as are suggestions for longer presentations. Separate chapters address good poster design, how to tailor your talk to an audience, and presentation skills.

Throughout the book the focus is on creating surprising, memorable stories. Scientific presentations are true stories about new discoveries. They are surprising because every new discovery changes our understanding of the world. Stories are memorable because they move audiences. This book teaches you to tell moving, memorable stories about your research.

The book also covers:

Randy Olson's And-But-Therefore (ABT) narrative form
Mike Morrison's Better Poster designs
Eye-tracking analyses of posters by EyeQuant
Numerous case studies and examples from different scientific fields
Exercises for the reader
Links to videos of exemplary presentations

With light-hearted illustrations by Jon Wagner, this book will appeal to researchers and graduate students in all areas of science, and other disciplines too.
