The A Word: speaking up about animal research
Understanding Animal Research (UAR) are delighted to offer our popular speaker workshop on the Friday 5 February at our offices in London, please sign up and find more details here. UAR has a been running a UK wide school speaker programme for over 5 years giving us a special insight into science communication; how it can be done right, what can go wrong and how to prepare yourself for a sea of eager (or not so eager) faces. This workshop is interactive, ensuring you have an opportunity to put into practise some of the techniques discussed and get useful feedback to help increase your confidence. This workshop is of particular use for those whose work involves the use of animals in research, and who want to feel more confident to talk about it with those outside the lab. It will also help you develop the skills and resources for speaking in public about science in general, whatever the subject.
