DESCRIPTION:The ABT (And\, But\, Therefore) Framework \nSpeaker:   \n \n  \nRandy Olson\, PhD \nScientist\, Filmmaker\, and Science Communication Strategist \n  \n  \n  \nDo you struggle to clearly communicate your research to broader audiences\, reviewers\, or collaborators? Join us for a university-wide training session with Randy Olson\, PhD as he guides us through the ABT (And\, But\, Therefore) Framework\, a simple\, powerful tool used by scientists\, communicators\, and policymakers worldwide to make complex ideas clear and compelling. \nIn this interactive communications seminar\, you will learn how to apply the ABT Framework to strengthen your grant proposals\, manuscript abstracts\, presentations\, and everyday scientific communication. Whether you are a graduate student\, postdoctoral fellow\, faculty member\, or staff researcher\, this session will give you a practical\, immediately applicable tool to sharpen how you tell the story of your science. \n\nAbout Randy Olson \nRandy Olson trained as a marine biologist\, earning his Ph.D. from Harvard University and serving on the faculty at the University of New Hampshire before leaving academia to pursue filmmaking at the University of Southern California. He is the creator of the ABT Framework\, a narrative structure derived from storytelling principles used in Hollywood that has become a widely adopted tool in the scientific community for clear\, audience-centered communication. \nOlson is the author of several acclaimed books on science communication\, including Houston\, We Have a Narrative\, and The Narrative Gym\, and has worked with NASA\, the National Academies of Sciences\, and research institutions worldwide to help scientists communicate with greater clarity\, impact\, and confidence. \n\nEvent details \nHosted by Jay Piccirillo\, MD\, FACS\, The TL1 Program & The R25 Program in partnership with the Center for Health & Science Communication at Becker Library\, this lecture is open to all. \n\nOnline via Zoom; Registration required\nFor questions\, contact Adisa Kalkan at adisakalkan@wustl.edu
