'Mock' TV Interview

Science Communication, Making Research Accessible to Everyone

For this week’s blog, I thought I would share my “mock” TV interview that I did through the RSG program at Medill School of Journalism.

Sneak preview: you should have at most 3 core ideas or things you want people to remember no matter the kind of conversation or talk you are giving. If someone is at a BBQ tomorrow and telling other people about their conversation with you (or the talk they heard you give or the interview they heard of yours), what do you want them to be able to remember and relay?
