Science Communication
With the mission to inspire the populus to develop a scientific temperament, contributing to the advancement of knowledge and fostering an informed society, I'm committed to offering meticulously curated talks designed to meet the specific needs of my participants.
CITY OF STARS
1 - 2.5 hours
City of Stars is a captivating journey into the cosmos, unraveling profound questions such as the universe’s origin, center, and purpose. Drawing on the groundbreaking insights of explorers such as Newton and Einstein, this talk bridges science and history, inspiring curious minds to pursue these questions further.
The Subtle Art of Science Communication
2 - 5 hours
Unlike traditional lectureship, science communication is about bringing sophisticated scientific concepts and findings to the populus. In this workshop, I brainstorm with my participants various public speaking and non-public speaking methods, conduct scicomm activities and highlight career opportunities in this budding field.
The Genius Unveiled
1 - 2 hours
A storytelling session exploring the lives of prominent figures in the history of science. For example, through excerpts from Einstein’s letters, I reveal how his personal life shaped his scientific pursuits, and through the 1949 GAC-AEC reports, I discuss Oppenheimer’s transformation from pro-weapon advocate to anti-weapon stance.
