It is a good morning exercise for a research scientist to discard a pet hypothesis every day before breakfast.  It keeps him young.

Bad Presentation BINGO from the ISC

This “Bingo Game” is an easy way to make sure your presentations are well-received and you get high marks for being a great communicators.   It was inspired by witnessing some booooring presentations at a science conference.  It was then turned into a tool for a presentation to scientists on how not to be a lame presenter.  Feel free to take it to your next conference and test your colleagues’ skills!
