Dear grad students and postdocs,
Please be advised that the dates for the *IsoSiM Summer School*
<http://isosim.ubc.ca/content/isosim-summer-school-0> have changed; the
lectures and panel have been compressed into three days, *25 & 29-30
June*. The focus remains *effective written and oral communication in
science*. The school will be held in four parts:Â
- The workshop portion will be led by Dr. Jean-luc Doumont
<http://www.principiae.be/>, author of the Nature Series "English
Communication for scientists" and a lecturer with Stanford and Harvard.
He will provide a *closed workshop**on writing and oral presentations*
Thursday 25 June and Monday 29 June, 09-17h.
- In preparation, group work will be interleaved with the workshop. As
part of a small group, you will prepare a document to be constructively
critiqued by Dr. Doumont. (Meetings and organization will be decided
between you and your group members.)
- Dr. Doumont will give a *public lecture*, open to all TRIUMF staff, on
*"Structuring your research paper"*, Tuesday 30 June, 10-12h.
- The fourth portion, Tuesday evening (17-19h), will focus on careers in
industry. A representative from each IsoSiM partner will give a brief
overview of the company, participate on a panel on "*Career paths in
industry for young researchers*," and discuss your individual concerns.
Please see the website
