Abstract

Researchers hold speeches on different events and occasions. The individual formats are usually aimed at alternating groups of participants, pursue different goals and differ in terms of their duration, size and structure. The overriding goals are to disseminate one’s own work to the target group and to interchange and network with other researchers. The classic forms of scientific communication, such as conferences, are aimed at a specialist audience within the scientific community. In addition, there are a growing number of different and unusual formats that make science and its results accessible to a broad public. For scientists, this means adapting to diverse challenges and sometimes unfamiliar conditions—an excellent opportunity for further development. The most important forms, the respective sequence and the tasks of presenters at presentation events involving internal and external science communication are outlined in this chapter.
