We share poetry we have written, events we host, ideas we have and tears we shed. In this session, we plan to tell our story and to relate how being one of the Phenomenal women has changed our lives. Moderator: Rachel Watson (Director, LAMP, Science Initiative). Panel takes place during the 2019 Community Conversations: Scholarship and Research Symposium on Culture, Gender & Social Justice (September 19-20. Panel Details.

Telling the Story of Your Science: Brief Talk & Discussion with Dr. Kika Tuff of Impact Media Lab

Zoology & Physiology Brown Bag seminar
Monday, May 13 | noon | Berry Center Auditorium

Dr. Kika Tuff, founder and creative designer of Impact Media Lab, will give a brief talk and then lead a discussion about how story and science come together. She will focus on how science is what drives the data, and how to build a story into writing a paper, giving a talk, sharing science with colleagues and beyond. Join us for pizza and a workshop/conversation about how to tell better stories about your work.

Dr. Tuff earned her PhD in ecology in 2016 from the University of Colorado at Boulder. At Impact Media Lab, Kika helps scientists and science organizations find the compelling stories in their research and develops media campaigns to share those stories with the world. As she points out, "Better storytelling helps scientists have more successful careers (write better papers, build better grant proposals, get noticed for new opportunities). It turns out that better storytelling is better for your science, your career, and our society."

Co-sponsored by Impact Media Lab, the University of Wyoming Science Communication Initiative, and the Department of Zoology & Physiology.
