At CNF, we start each Societal and Ethical Issues training with an introduction slide. Believe it or not, by the time the users see me at 3:15pm they STILL haven’t introduced themselves to each other. We ask the users to do three things: 1.) say your name, 2.) provide your institutional background, and 3.) explain your research as if you were explaining it to your non-engineering grandmother. The point is can you explain what you do in a way that anyone can understand?
