Three Minute Thesis competition

I recently competed in the Auckland University Three Minute Thesis competition and was delighted to get through to the finals. There were some excellent presentations for both Masters and Doctoral students and it was great to get an insight into what people are researching.

The brief was to present your research in three minutes by outlining your objective, providing a background to your research topic by highlighting the significance of your research and to give a summary of outcomes.  No mean feat to get across all of that in 3 minutes with only one slide and no technical research jargon.
