Please join us for the Project Bridge Gong Show on May 21st from 6-8PM!
Everyone involved in research is welcome to join and present their work, and anyone is welcome to attend, ring some cowbells and enjoy hearing about all the great research going on across UVA grounds.
You may be wondering....
What is a Gong Show?
It is an event where researchers give a three-minute layman's summary of their work. If the audience hears any jargon, they ring a cowbell, prompting the presenter to re-explain the term in plain language before continuing.
Why should you present?
Presenting is a great way to practice communicating the impact of your research to a broad audience—a vital skill for job interviews, grant applications, and explaining your work to friends and family. Plus, there will be free pizza for all presenters!
Can I attend without presenting?
Absolutely. We encourage everyone to join the audience and help ring the cowbells.
