Description

This lecture introduces the concept of personal branding in the context of academia and research. It explains why visibility, credibility and clear communication matter for scientists today – from career development and funding opportunities to building trust with society and industry. Personal branding in science is not about self-promotion. It is about clarity of expertise, consistency of message and strategic communication.

What you will learn

  • How to define your professional identity
  • Clarifying what you want to be known for
  • Identifying your key audiences
  • Choosing communication channels that fit your goals and personality

The session combines theory with practical reflection and real-life examples of successful science communication. By the end of the lecture, you will leave with a first draft of their personal branding strategy, including key messages, priorities and concrete next steps you can further develop over time.

The webinar takes place on March 4, 09:30 – 11:30, and will be held online (via MS Teams).
