The following notes are offered as suggestions for fine-tuning your presentation to our group for maximum communication. They are distilled from prior speakers' experiences. We hope they may be helpful to you.
Our membership ranges from accountants to physicists and from total novices to sophisticated theorists. Please define your terms and sketch in relevant background before discussing advanced topics, e.g., briefly explain what a Mandelbrot Set is before elaborating on it; those who don't know will be thankful.
Although we are primarily interested in your ideas, we are also interested in you. Personal anecdotes, irrelevant insights into anything, silly jokes and puns are all welcome should the mood strike you.
The focus of the talk should be some aspect of neural nets, fuzzy logic, biomolecular computing, etc. Other supporting topics such as traditional statistical analysis should probably occupy no more than 20 of the presentation's 50 minutes.
If you have any questions, please give us a call; we'll be glad to help.
