Difference between revisions of "20.109(S24):Journal article presentation"

Overview and logistics

You will complete this assignment individually.

Please review the 20.109 statement on collaboration and integrity as you proceed.

In Module 1, you delivered a Research talk that was focused on your research project. For this assignment, you will present work completed by other scientists that has been peer-reviewed and published. Reading, understanding, and explaining research related to your project are all important skills that will be important as you flex your scientist muscles.

As you prepare your talk be sure to review the resources provided on the Communication tab. In addition, please use the following link to view the full video from Susan McConnell: Designing effective scientific presentations. Lastly, review the Journal club presentation Evaluation rubric (linked here)!

Method of submission

Please submit your completed Journal club slides 1 hr prior to your scheduled laboratory session time to Canvas, with filename Name_LabSection_JC.pptx (for example, ImaStudent_TR_JC.pptx).

Length and format of presentations

You will have 10 minutes to discuss the journal article you select. It may be very difficult, or impossible, to discuss all of the figures within the article adequately in only 10 minutes. Therefore, this assignment is not only to present the work, but also to identify the data that is most important to the conclusions. It is also critical to consider how your presentation 'flows' from one experiment to the next. As when you write your own research, you want to deliver a coherent story during your journal presentation.

Format considerations

The timing provided here is a guideline for a 10-minute presentation. Your presentation may vary depending on the content.

Helpful hints

• A 10-minute talk is NOT a 30-minute talk given while racing through slides and speaking very quickly.
• Consider ways to transition from one slide to the next to ensure the information is tied together.
• Practice your presentation in front of people rather than in a room by yourself and practice several times!
• Familiarize yourself with using a laser pointer and/or slide changer if you will use one during the actual presentation.
• If you do choose to use a pointer, use it to direct attention to specific elements on the screen, rather than constantly gesturing in the general vicinity of your slide; otherwise, the audience will not know what's important. When you later make your own slides and figures, the apparent need for a pointer may actually mean you need to make a clearer slide.

Article selection

You may choose to select a journal article from those provided by the teaching faculty or you can select an article that is related to your Module 2 research from any peer-reviewed journal.

• If you choose an article from below, please "reserve" it by putting your (initials/lab section/team color) next to the listing here.
  • For visibility, please use the following format to sign up if possible, substituting in your own initials and team color: <font color = purple><b>[IS/WF/Purple]</b></font color>, which will look like [IS/WF/Purple].
• If you would like to discuss a paper not on the list below, please email it (as .pdf) to the teaching faculty (Noreen, Becky, and Jamie) with a brief description of the work.
• The list of papers below is provided as a guideline for the types of papers that might be relevant for your presentation. You are not limited to the primary research articles on this list. The list is provided simply to give you an idea of the kinds of subjects that could make suitable presentations for the class. Feel free to search PubMed yourself to find articles of interest to you.

Please review the articles before making your final selection to ensure it is a paper that you find interesting and that you are comfortable presenting!
