Introduction
To speak about science to broad audience means being able to connect a certain content to a certain audience. We will explore some general techniques to stablish this connection in different ways. We will give practical advice, study some examples and address the main issues one faces when trying to communicate science or math.
This talk is aimed at PhD and Postdoctoral researchers.
