Discovery Seminars for graduate students

With Kurt Ebeling

 Ever had stage fright or anxiety when speaking? Ever been so nervous while giving a presentation or speech that you forgot what to say or say something you regret?

Have no fear, as Kurt will be able to equip you with some tips for succeeding in presentations in various settings, including scientific talks, seminars, or elevator pitches for aspiring entrepreneurs and scientists / researchers ready to share their ideas with the world! This seminar / workshop will be interactive and will provide you with opportunities to put into practice your newly learned tips.

Kurt is an accomplished speaker having been a member of Toastmasters for 4 years, competing in numerous contests, including 3 Minute Thesis, where he participated in the Eastern Canadian Regional Finals in 2019. He is a Polytechnique graduate, having completed his Master's in Biomedical Engineering under the supervision of Pr. De Crescenzo. He has made the most out of these opportunities, to take his life experiences and skills to Edmonton, Alberta where he is now a medical student at the University of Alberta (Class of 2025).
