Research Reviews

• Educate each other
• Get to know each other (and collaborate?)
• Help each other

• Two talks each meeting
• Meetings every two weeks (or more often if needed)
• One hour meetings, so 30 min for each person

• The audience is diverse. Present so that everyone can understand most of your talk.
• Concentrate on why you are investigating this topic: What makes it interesting or important?
• Give a good review of essential background information, covering perhaps 1/2 the talk.
• Move to the details of your own investigation, after you have provided this introduction.
• Plan to talk for a maximum of 20 min. (This is hard!)
• Encourage questions and interaction

• Stop the speaker if he/she isn't communicating with you, and ask for more background
• Ask questions, make comments, and participate. (Be aware of the 10-min allocation for discussion.)
• Provide feedback: What worked, what didn't?
• Follow up afterward if there are opportunities for collaboration or discussion
