Drawing on her extensive experience and success presenting her own research, Dr. Abby Benninghoff will share her experience and expertise in preparing an effective scientific presentation, including posters and oral talks. The workshop will include a presentation regarding techniques for effectively communicating research to your audience followed by a group discussion and critique of example slides provided by Dr. Benninghoff and workshop participants. Please email posters and/or short powerpoint presentations for group discussion to benninga@science.oregonstate.edu
Dr. Benninghoff is a Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award postdoctoral fellow in the OSU Department of Environmental and Molecular Toxicology. She received her B.S. in Biochemistry and Biology at the University of Tennessee, Knoxville, and completed her Ph.D. in Marine Science at the University of Texas in Austin. She joined Dave Williams’ lab at OSU in 2005, where she has used trout, mouse and cell models to investigate how compounds in both the environment and diet promote or prevent cancer formation. She has been awarded a Society of Toxicology & Colgate-Palmolive Grant for Alternative Research, 2007 and 2008 National Science Communication Fellowships, several internal pilot grants and a recent R21 grant designed to determine how dietary indole-3-carbinol modifies the epigenome to prevent lymphoma development.
