Explaining research involving complex ideas makes sense to an audience full of experts in the field, but to a non-technical audience, the information may be confusing. In this interactive discussion topics covered included:
 

• How to present technical findings to a non-technical audience
• The types of questions a presenter should be able to answer from a non-technical audience
• Understanding your audience
• Understanding why your research is important to your audience
• Translating the impact of your research, not the details of your research
