Public Engagement “Dragon’s Den” this May 3rd: Calling all MDS PGRs & ECRs!

Published: Posted on

Join us on Friday 3rd May (1-4pm, IBR seminar room) for a training workshop with a twist! Have fun with peers whilst developing practical experience relevant to grant application and impact activities. Skills such as:

  • Collaborative working in response to a funder brief
  • Developing an elevator pitch
  • Presenting to an expert panel of mystery Dragons…
  • Providing constructive peer-review to others

Two winning teams will also win £500 funding to turn their public engagement ideas into reality! 

You don’t need to be in a team already, we can assign you to one but if you would like to bring colleagues with you, please do! Remember PGRs/ECRs across MDS are welcome and we would love to see teams of mixed groups from different institutes and areas of study.

Sign up by April 26th, email Caroline Gillett c.d.t.gillett@bham.ac.uk or Dr Gabriela da Silva Xavier g.dasilvaxavier@bham.ac.uk.
