– you broaden your network
Opportunities emerge in various ways from presentations, outreach and exchange. Postdocs have built up experience and knowledge. A presentation showcases more than reaching out to new contacts by sharing CV or email. The presentation should inform in an efficient and clear way for the intended purpose. The presentation should show skill to present for professionals in the same area but different activity — for example a device researcher in silicon carbide presenting to a crystal grower. Or across disciplines — a researcher in LED technology for general lighting presenting to a researcher who studies how new lighting affects people’s perception of light.
At the same time, participants grow knowledge by listening to other researchers topics and perspectives. The exchange builds own capacity to understand contexts and provides an overall competence building.
Presentation is 10 minutes and there is 10 minutes of discussion. Such a presentation of you and your research field and the following exchange create a professional impression that reflects more than your CV.
