Abstract: These days more than ever it’s crucial for us scientists to tell the world just how amazing the stuff we do actually is. Communicating what you do is a key skill for inspiring both the general public, and the people who you want to pay you! In this talk Nicholas Harrigan will draw on his award winning experiences as a science communicator to outline tricks and techniques for how you can best sell your science.
