I love public speaking and would be delighted if you invited me to talk to your group (click here for contact information). Some topics for talks I’ve given in the past include:

  • What Makes Us Human? – How comparative genomics can teach us more about ourselves
  • Skeptical Genetics – Clarifying common misconceptions about genetics, especially in the media
  • My Journey to the Creation Museum – A humorous virtual tour of the Creation Museum in Kentucky, debunking its bad science
  • PokeBiology 101 – What the Pokemon games can teach us about real creatures
  • God’s Lady Problem – Investigating the intersection of atheism & feminism
  • Edgy Yet Friendly – How to create interesting, media-attracting events while minimizing offense
