Scientifically Speaking
How to speak about your research with confidence and clarity
«
I was overjoyed when I came upon this book - scientifically speaking is such a brilliant and well needed read for every scientist and communicator of science. It’s definitely an area that is under taught yet so incredibly incredibly vital.

I’m a scientist - and I have to admit, I am woefully inadequate at disseminating and communicating my science to a lay audience/ to other scientists and it’s something I’ve always wanted to improve on. Being a Science communicator of ‘good science’ has never been more important, especially in an age where misinformation and media sensationalism are rife. There is so much to improve on here and it can only be started with knowing and understanding the benefits of sound science communication - enter this book!
All throughout my scientific career, training on how to communicate science has been rather lacking in that department somewhat and I’m not one of those people that is naturally blessed with the ability to do spurt science with effortless ease- the book definitely made me believe that I could actually do it and it’s not something many people are naturally blessed with. Everyone gets nervous when public speaking and the ones you see effortlessly performing to an audience has put the practice and the work in! This book will certainly help you to be on your way to joining the ranks of good science communicators.
I seriously learnt so much from this book and it was both enlightening and informative. Not gonna lie- I took notes! Pens and papers at the ready people. There are a lot of implementable factors here and an absolutely fantastic end chapter for things you can do to prepare, physically and vocally with exercises you can undertake too.
This book was fantastic in delivering brilliant nuggets of wisdom in a concise and easy to digest way. There are so many actionable and applicable ways you can apply this information to your life and I think everyone reading it will at least be able to get one great thing away that they’ve learnt.
It’s non-waffley and written in a great way- very easy to read and really uplifting when addressing a topic that is potentially terrifying such as public speaking! I also loved the fact that at the end of the chapter, there was a fab, succinct ‘main points’ section which further helps to drive home the main messages.
If you’re a scientist or in a related field, I seriously couldn’t recommend this book enough.
Now more than ever, the scientific and medical community is under the microscope and in front of the media. Science matters, and in a post-truth world it's more important than ever for scientists and physicians to be heard. Les mer
Now more than ever, the scientific and medical community is under the microscope and in front of the media. Science matters, and in a post-truth world it's more important than ever for scientists and physicians to be heard.
But there's a challenge. To get people to listen, you can't communicate in writing alone anymore. You need to speak up and be seen - on stage, online, and on camera. To do this well you need to master the art of influential speaking, which is something you weren't taught at university or medical school.
This book teaches you how to become a compelling scientific speaker so that you can put your message across with confidence and clarity, both online and in person. It's written by a speaking coach with 25 years of experience in science communications.
Part One shows how speaking can help you to win the war of attention, benefiting both your field and your career.
Part Two explains how to craft your scientific message in a way that connects with your audience and achieves your goal. Including how to be memorable, handle the Q&A, and communicate risk.
Part Three gives you a tool kit for speaking with energy and conviction in all types of situations. These include virtual channels, which are particularly important in the post-COVID era.
Jo Browning is the Founder and Managing Director of Filshie Browning Associates, and its Principle Consultant. She has 25 years of experience in verbal communication skills, and helps scientists and physicians to improve their content, competence, and confidence, so that they can communicate with impact and authority. This enables them to enhance their reputations and build more effective relationships with both their peers and others.
