Copenhagen, April 19, 2017
Hi guys,
Some really busy weeks have passed since we met; I apologize for my tardiness.
Anyway, I had a great day in Copenhagen! Below you will find the lecture slides in pdf format as well as a motley but useful collection of links .
Feel free to get in touch if you’re preparing a talk or have questions about your communication strategy. Good luck with your studies, research, networking and communication!

Crastina
I currently put a lot of effort in Crastina—a networking platform for the exchange of knowledge, skills, experience and opinion regarding scientific communication and science dissemination. The primary target group is early career scientists, but here you can find stuff which is useful for everybody with an interest for communication. (The name comes from Scientia Crastina, Latin for ‘The Science of Tomorrow’)
There are several ways to engage in the Crastina network activities – please get in touch if you’re interested.
