This workshop will prepare postdocs to write an Op-Ed article on the topic of their choice. Writing an Op-Ed will help members fine-tune their communication skills by writing for a lay audience about a complex topic.

Op-Eds can be published on the McCall-MacBain program website (for program members) or submitted to other publication outlets (The Sil, The Spec, etc.)

Workshop your piece: Work with other participants to workshop your writing to best communicate your research. Consider wording, framing, timeliness and tone. How can you best tell the story of your research for the most impact and intrigue?

This event is ideal for anyone who is interested in communicating their research.

The first half of the workshop runs from 10 a.m. to 12 noon.

The last half of the workshop runs from 1 to 3 p.m.

This workshop is delivered by the McCall MacBain Postdoctoral Fellows Teaching & Leadership Program, located at McMaster University.
