Melissa Marshall: Talk nerdy to me

Talk nerdy to me

Melissa Marshall brings a message to all scientists (from non-scientists): We're fascinated by what you're doing. So tell us about it -- in a way we can understand. In just 4 minutes, she shares powerful tips on presenting complex scientific ideas to a general audience.

Breakthroughs in science and engineering can transform the world, but their power depends on clear communication. Even complex concepts, like trabeculae inspiring the Eiffel Tower, become accessible when jargon is swapped for vivid stories and visuals. Sharing the relevance of research invites others into the wonderland of discovery. Effective communication bridges the gap between big ideas and real impact.
