Doumont typically comes to campus each fall to give a talk on presentations, graphs, or writing. In previous years, many grad students have commented on how helpful they find his advice. He has a PhD in Applied Physics, so has a real STEM perspective, and is also quite entertaining. This year, he has created this new session to cover topics we're all dealing with in our online talks. Purdue grad students, postdocs, and faculty are welcome to register for this free talk.
