Chalk Talks are a key component of faculty interviews and other informal presentations. But what does a Chalk Talk look like? We’ve curated some examples for you.

Social media can be a powerful tool for researchers, scientists, and academics to increase engagement, showcase their work, and expand professional networks, but not every channel is right for all researchers and their communication objectives.
Our Social Media Training and Workshops equip participants with an understanding of what’s out there, whether and when to use it, and practical strategies to promote research effectively using social media whilst balancing the realities of time, skills, and budget.
We’ll cover:
Depending on your time and objectives, we can introduce participants to other ways to gain visibility and engage with audiences online. We can cover topics like “should I have my own website”, “how to use tools like substack, Medium, and The Conversation”, and cross-posting multi-media content to increase visibility.
Get in touch for more details or book a session tailored to your needs. Alternatively book a call and let’s talk through your ideas.
We typically schedule workshops and training 6-12 months in advance, so if you have specific dates in mind for a future event or for training planning purposes, we recommend getting in touch as early as possible. Need something at short notice? Not to worry - we often have a few days available each month for unplanned sessions.
Loved this. So much information and still time for some good discussions with fellow students. I look forward to being able to use some of the ideas when I create my first poster.
I have just completed SciComm Success' Poster Design Workshop. It was full of interesting tips and tools, some of which I have already built into my poster planning. Although we had a big group and I expected a lecture/webinar format, Suzanne constantly invited us to provide feedback and our own experiences, and I enjoyed hearing what fellow biologists like and don't. I liked that the group was international and enjoyed the flexible and informal discussions - some via chat, some using whiteboards, some simple audio discussion. It felt as if we could all contribute, wherever we were. I would recommend this workshop for anyone new to creating posters for conferences. It would probably be a good refresher for poster presenters, too. Thank you, SEB, for the opportunity.
This was a good refresher on best practice planning and design for posters. I particularly enjoyed the sessions on tools for choosing colour palettes, which I have since used in other communication materials, and the discussion about online and virtual conferences, which was an eye-opener for me during COVID. Thank you, Suzanne!
