Who is this for?
Whether you're a researcher, engineer, healthcare professional or policy expert — if your work involves complex knowledge and non-expert audiences, these workshops are for you.
Why it matters
You've worked hard to build deep expertise. But when it's time to explain your work to non-experts, find funding, or inspire others — the words don't always come easily.
Science communication isn't just a nice-to-have. It's a professional skill that can be learned, practiced, and mastered. With the right guidance, anyone can become a confident, compelling communicator.
With 25+ years of experience at the intersection of science and communication, I bring both deep expertise and evidence-based teaching methods to every session.
When experts communicate well, knowledge spreads, trust grows, and society benefits from the ideas that shape our world.

About Frank
I started as a biology student at Leiden University, dreaming of a research career. But I discovered my true calling: helping experts communicate their knowledge to the world — in a way that creates real connection and impact.
For more than 25 years, I've worked at the intersection of science and communication — as a trainer, coach, and Head of Communications at an internationally renowned research institute. My approach is always practical, evidence-based, and tailored to you.
