TER #244 - Collaboration, Relationships and Cognitive Load in Schools with Dr Joanne Casey - 14 April 2024

Delivering stand-up comedy teaches you to effectively communicate your message to a wide audience. We speak with David Cristane, Director of Future Science Talks to learn how he works with researchers to improve their storytelling skills and bring science to comedy stages around Australia. Hosted by Ben Newsome from Fizzics Education About Future Science Talks Future Science Talks is Australia’s only national Science Comedy Program, in which scientists and academics master storytelling techniques and perform at major comedy festivals.  This program enhances career progression and funding opportunities for scientists. https://www.futuresciencetalks.com.au/science-comedy-program About David Crisante David Crisante is a communications and comedy expert who trains others on more impactful communication styles. He founded the Sydney Comedy School and Future Science Talks – which runs Australia’s only government-funded Science Comedy Program for scientists.  Each year he trains thousands of people on how to be more effective when on stage and giving presentations.   David ran media and communication teams within science and health organisations for over five years.  Prior to this, he was in diplomacy and international crisis response for Australia’s Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade.  He specialised in the response to MH370, the Syrian War and was a political speechwriter for the Foreign Minister.
