Worth a read: The Craft of Scientific Presentations
Welcome to the second day of 2026! We thought we’d start this year’s selection of SciComm Matters material with Michael Alley’s practical guide for scientists who want to improve the clarity and impact of their talks. Full of examples that show what works (and what doesnโt) across structure, speech, visuals, and delivery.
We’re fans of his assertion-evidence model.
Useful for you if:
- you present to scientific or technical audiences
- you need help organising visuals and narrative flow
- you want to avoid common pitfalls in academic presentations
