Workshops & Speaking
Alongside one-on-one support, I lead workshops and trainings on scientific communication, career growth, and navigating both academia and industry — for those building their careers in place or considering what’s next. Whether you're looking for guidance on writing, presenting, or mapping your career path, I can tailor a session to fit your team’s needs. Get in touch to discuss availability and rates.
A few ideas for workshops or talks we could tailor to your group:
Designing a Winning Research Talk
Data Storytelling: Choosing the Right Visuals
Building a Narrative Around Your Scientific Career
Reframing Your Identity as a Scientist to Support Career Growth
Crafting a Competitive Grant Proposal
Building a Strong Research Statement and Job Talk Framework
Creating a Roadmap for Your First Years as Faculty
Here’s what an event organizer had to say about a recent workshop:
“Dr. Jeff Malins gave an outstanding guest presentation in my Healthcare Data Science course at UVA. His talk seamlessly blended practical career guidance with personal storytelling, highlighting his inspiring transition from academic research to a data science role at Mayo Clinic. Dr. Malins’s ability to clearly explain key skills — from communication to project organization — made a lasting impact on our students. His engaging and thoughtful style, combined with deep industry insight, makes him an exceptional mentor for anyone considering a career shift into healthcare data science.”
Curious What I Sound Like in Real Life?
I was recently a guest on The BOLD PhD podcast, and joined Dr. Gertrude Nonterah to talk about the psychosocial impact of leaving academia and what my day-to-day life is like as an AI scientist. If what you hear resonates, I’d love to continue the conversation — feel free to get in touch.
