Hosting and Master of Ceremonies

The BA Festival (Norwich) - "The Beautiful Brain".

I was the host of an entire day of neuroscience presentations by seven academics at the BA (British Association for the Advancement of Science) festival. As host, I was responsible for the entire day, also making sure that presentations were on time and went well, and encouraging questions and answers at the end, which was incredibly active.

Biosciences Federation - "Life Sciences Career Conference 2005".

5 Nov 2005.
Chaired half-day session with 6 speakers describing career possibilities for Life Science graduates.

Dana Centre for the Brain, London Museum of Science - "Making Sense: experiencing the world around us".

This three hour event with one hundred attendees and three simultaneous events. As MC my functions were to introduce the speakers and events (without notes), to run a large roving question-and-answer session at the end of the event, and to keep people entertained and circulating throughout.
