We bridge the gap between science and understanding.

For more than a decade, Present Your Science has trained scientists, engineers, and other technical professionals to give the types of presentations that engage audiences, move projects forward, and transform their careers. One of the most powerful shifts we facilitate is one from being a “reporter” to an “interpreter” of their important work. When experts are able to interpret their work to key stakeholders—versus just reporting findings—they're able to reach audiences in a whole new way, one that changes viewpoints and positively impacts decision-making.

Our work is based on deep research in neuropsychology and behavior, and the presentation tools we teach are practical and actionable so your stakeholders are inspired to take action immediately.

MEET OUR FOUNDER

Melissa Marshall

Melissa believes that even the best science is destined to remain undiscovered unless it’s presented in a clear and compelling way that sparks innovation and drives adoption.

She’s passionate about showing often-skeptical scientists and technical professionals that they really can change how they present for the better, without changing themselves.

For the past decade, Melissa has traveled around the world to work with Fortune 100 corporations, institutions and universities, teaching the proven strategies she’s mastered through her consulting work and her 10 years as a faculty member at Penn State University. In 2019, 2020, and 2021, Microsoft recognized Melissa’s work empowering the technical community to use PowerPoint to design slides more effectively by naming her as one of Microsoft's Most Valuable Professionals (MVP).

Now, Melissa’s transformational training is more accessible than ever with her live virtual programs that she delivers to private groups located all over the globe. When you work with Melissa, your team will experience why people say, over and over again, “That was the best virtual training session EVER.”

You’ll find that Melissa practices what she preaches with her own lively and practical talks. For a sneak peek, check out her TED talk, “Talk Nerdy to Me.” It’s been watched by over 2.5 million people (and counting).
