The European Science Open Forum in Dublin last week was the opportunity for me to attend to an all range of science sessions and workshops. A good place for networking actually. Here I would only like to share something I’ve seen there, something you might not be familiar with : the elevator pitch.

Last week, as I was at ESOF. I had the chance to attend to a great workshop about science communication. I guess I have to share it with you. Lots of tips, a lot of enthusiasm, many young researchers were by the way in the room, I believe it was a very successful session.
