FameLab Astrobiology workshops will train scientists and engineers to convey complex scientific concepts to the public. The training, coaching and recognition provided by these events builds the confidence needed to apply communication skills in a wide variety of situations.
Each contestant has the spotlight for only three minutes. No slides, no charts just the power of words and anything you can hold in your hands. A panel of experts in both science and science communication will do the judging.Winners of regional heats will continue to the grand final in Atlanta, Ga. in April at AbSciCon 2012. The winner of the FameLab Astrobiology final will be invited to participate in the International FameLab Final at The Times Cheltenham Science Festival on June 16, 2012.
