Event Details
EMBO and IndiaBioscience have joined efforts to provide the life science community in India with online courses to strengthen professional skills in scientific communication, fellowship writing, publishing, and career development under the umbrella of the EMBO-IndiaBioscience Online Courses 2026.
This interactive course will help participants strengthen essential scientific communication skills, including storytelling, slide and poster design, visual clarity, and effective research presentations.
Curated by Laura Moro-Martín, the course combines interactive learning with practical exercises and structured feedback sessions based on participants’ own presentations.
Workshop Structure:
1) Session 1: “Fundamentals” Session (4 hours)
An interactive session covering core principles of effective scientific communication, including structure, storytelling, slide design, and visual clarity. The session combines short theoretical inputs with practical exercises carried out individually and in small breakout groups.
2) Session 2: Practical presentation & feedback session (final duration depends on number of participants, with about 25 – 30 minutes allocated per participant).
A hands-on session focused on participants’ own presentations. Participants present their work (approx. 5 minutes each) and receive detailed, structured feedback from the instructor and peers. For optimal interaction and depth of feedback, this session is conducted in small groups of 6 – 7 participants. The number of practical sessions required will depend on the final number of participants. Each participant will be assigned to one practical session, either on September 9, 10, or 11.
