Public speaking is the part of my work I enjoy the most. I have received several awards for my ability to convey complex messages at any level in a rigorous but engaging way, both in person and online.
Topics I have been invited to talk about include: autism, reading, language, child development, neurodiversity, inclusion and diversity, science communication, quality of life and mental health, women in science, diverse skill acquisition in grad school, etc.
La prise de parole en public est la partie que j’aime le plus dans mon travail. J’ai reçu de nombreux prix récompensant ma capacité à communiquer des messages complexes de façon rigoureuse mais engageante, en personne et en ligne.
Les sujets sur lesquels j’ai été invitée à parler dans le passé incluent : l’autisme, la lecture, le langage, le développement de l’enfant, la neurodiversité, l’inclusion et la diversité, la vulgarisation et communication scientifique, la qualité de vie et la santé mentale, les femmes en sciences, l’acquisition de compétences transversales aux cycles supérieurs, etc.
