Focus: Using AI to communicate research clearly to different audiences.
Description:
This session would explore how AI can help researchers translate technical work into accessible and audience-appropriate communication. Participants would practice adapting the same core findings for different settings, such as collaborators, community partners, students, leadership, or public-facing summaries.
Possible hands-on activities:
Turn a technical summary into plain-language prose
Draft a short abstract, presentation blurb, or project update
Reframe the same findings for academic vs. non-academic audiences
Generate slide outlines or talking points from key results
Create a first draft of documentation, FAQs, or knowledge-transfer notes
