  • Summary

    Research presentations offer personal, interpersonal, and professional benefits to students and more senior researchers. Through presentations, students gain important skills (e.g., analytic thinking), are able to meet potential mentors and/or employers, and develop their identities as scholars in a given field. Senior researchers may see increases in motivation, productivity, and collaborative opportunities. Various avenues for presenting one’s work include institutional based, regional, national, and international conferences. Readers are encouraged to reflect on logistics and personal and professional goals when deciding on which conference is right for them. Descriptions of poster presentations, oral presentations, and job talks are provided. Subsequently, this chapter offers practical guidance on “best practices” for presenting one’s research in each respective modality. Readers are encouraged to reflect on the composition of their audience, the goals of their presentation, and the visual organization of material to craft the most effective presentation possible.
