The life cycle of a story: from inspiration to telling
- Discover what elements of storytelling and narrative can be used to enhance a profession in the sciences. – Craft compelling and moving stories from your experiences as a scientist using these key story elements: character, conflict, structure, metaphor and description. – Apply these storytelling and narrative skills to working in the sciences: communicating research to a range of audiences (including publics, media and funding bodies); enhancing presentation skills for lectures and seminars; telling scientific stories across a range of media.

Robert Holtom is a professional storyteller and consultant who has worked with a range of organisations to help them refine and hone their stories for a variety of audiences.
