Summary
Giving a research talk (say, at a conference, to your department or in your research group meeting) is a really important part of a scientist's career. This course is designed for anyone who will be giving research-based scientific talks in the future.
Content
The course entails a small group of students watching the on-line videos made by scientists, then doing written exercises, and finally discussing these exercises and videos with the course moderator. There will also be a final independent project. It should take ~3 hrs per week for 7 weeks, plus 7 hours to prepare the project.
