By the end of the session participants will have:

✨ the beginnings of a flash talk they can refine and use
✨ a clear understanding of what flash talks are and why they matter in research settings
✨ a flexible structure for shaping the content of any 1–5 minute talk.

#flashtalk #3MT #plantscience

✨The session is lightly interactive and will include practical examples, hands-on application time, and space for questions and reflection

✨ This skills-focused webinar will help early career researchers & professionals build short, high-impact talks for academic and public audiences.

✨ We'll explore what flash talks are, what makes them effective, and how to use a simple, flexible framework to structure a 1 to 5 minute presentation.
