Communication is a skill that must be learned.
Timing is a very important aspect of research – especially regarding communication. .
How many times have you gone into a project, at home or work, and then ended up in a situation where you go ‘yeah well I didn’t realise that, or think of that, before we started!’
You will have a lot of ‘good’ ideas throughout your scientific career, but unfortunately, not all of them will be well received by others.
It takes a certain kind of person, commitment and perseverance to be a successful scientist, in any field or application…but take a moment to think about all the skills that you have developed as a scientist.
Most scientists at one stage or another are involved in the preparation and submission of an article or paper to a scientific journal.
The risk of miscommunications, so, failing to communicate adequately, or misinterpretation, which is communicating in a way that leaves the receiver open to multiple interpretations, can be fairly high.
A scientific presentation is a great way to get exposure for your science because while you are speaking, you and your science are the centre of attention.
For your research to have impact, it needs to create change, which can’t happen if no one knows about the outcomes, or if your research doesn’t align with how the change needs to be made.
