It is often challenging for researchers to summarize their findings into a paper to be published or into a short presentation for a meeting, let alone to put years of work into a three-minute pitch. But that카지노 게임 컬렉션�s exactly the challenge proposed by the Three Minute Thesis Competition (3MT) organized by Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s School of Graduate Studies.

Each year, masters and doctoral candidates are invited to present their research and its impact in front of selected non-specialist judges and a live audience. The winner gets to represent Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s in an Ontario-wide 3MT event and can be among the few selected to participate in national and international competitions. This year marks the 10th year Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s has hosted a 3MT.

On March 24, the 10 finalists who made it through qualifying heats showcased their ability to communicate research in a clear, engaging way. The winner of the $1,000 grand prize was Amtul Haq Ayesha, a master카지노 게임 컬렉션�s student in the School of Computing. She will represent Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션�s at the Ontario-wide 3MT competition to be hosted at the 카지노게임사이트 of Guelph on May 4.

Working on methods to allow remote measuring of vital signs 카지노 게임 컬렉션� heart rate, oxygen saturation, blood pressure, and others 카지노 게임 컬렉션� using online video calls, Ayesha has dived deep enough into technical knowledge to understand how challenging it can be to talk about her research in a way non-experts can engage with.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�When you have spent such a long time on one project, everything in your mind is crystal clear. This makes us think that whatever we are talking is very simple to understand,카지노 게임 컬렉션� she says. 카지노 게임 컬렉션�But when someone hears your subject for the first time, it takes time to absorb and understand. That is the most challenging part 카지노 게임 컬렉션� to infer how much a person hearing about it (and for only three minutes) comprehends. As presenters, we want the audience to understand everything clearly카지노 게임 컬렉션�.

Ayesha believes participating in 3MT helped her practice 카지노 게임 컬렉션�the art of explaining the technical jargon in such simple words that the audience relates with it카지노 게임 컬렉션� 카지노 게임 컬렉션� an ability she foresees being very useful in her journey as a researcher.

Lessons learned on how to communicate research

Another presenter that stood out to the judges was PhD candidate Navjit Gaurav (Rehabilitation Science), the runner-up for this year카지노 게임 컬렉션�s competition. He presented his project on new ways to design schools in India to promote inclusion of children with disabilities.

For Gaurav, the main challenges of the research communications exercise were managing time, speaking in a jargon-free way, and knowing what not to communicate.

카지노 게임 컬렉션�Most of the time we have a lot to convey, and we think each piece of information is indispensable. We had to reflect on what is the most important thing that we want the audience to know about our research,카지노 게임 컬렉션� he explains.

To prepare for his presentation, Gaurav practiced with family members who are not familiar with his area of expertise. He believes this was very useful to help him craft his pitch in plain language to engage non-expert audiences.
