WCHRI Undergraduate Workshop: Tips and Tricks for Terrific Presentations
Wednesday, July 12, 2023 — 1:00pm to 2:30pm
As classes and conferences return to in-person following years of online learning, you may be wondering how to hone your in-person presentation skills. In this workshop, students will explore how to deliver effective in-person presentations. We will focus on topics such as overcoming the presentation jitters and telling a story with your research.
Snacks and socializing to follow.

She has collaborated with experienced clinicians and pursued projects in a variety of fields, including gynecologic oncology, pediatrics and rheumatology. Having had the opportunity to present at national conferences, she hopes to share her insights and encourage others who may be getting started in their research journeys. In her spare time, she enjoys being outdoors, hiking in the mountains and playing and coaching soccer.
