Description

The purpose of this hands-on training series is to employ the principles of storytelling as a tool for dissemination of research. Dissemination of research findings is critical to the adoption of evidence-supported interventions within specific settings of practice or community. It can, however, be challenging to effectively communicate these science-backed practices and behaviors to a broader audience.

Participants will have the opportunity to craft a story (session 1), practice telling that story (session 2), and then perform and record the story (session 3). Throughout the training, participants will receive coaching and feedback from master storyteller David Fakunle, associate faculty at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health and adjunct faculty at the University of Florida Center for Arts in Medicine.

This workshop is sponsored by the Johns Hopkins Institute for Clinical & Translational Research.

The sessions will be held on:

  • Nov. 29, 11:30 a.m. – 1:30 p.m.
  • Dec. 3, 1 – 3 p.m.
  • Dec. 9, 11 a.m. – 1 p.m.
