FI(na)LMENTE, a project aimed at promoting the use of videos as a means of communication for scientific, research is back. The project represents an unconventional training opportunity that combines creative and technical skills, necessary for effective scientific dissemination. This year in 2.0 mode.

The II Edition of the workshop Communicating science. Pills of storytelling & filmmaking will be addressed to 12 PhD Candidates from the Doctoral School and 12 students from the School of Advanced Studies 'Ferdinando Rossi' (SSST) of UniTo. Applications from all disciplines are admitted, which will be selected on the basis of a competitive call based, for Ph.D. Candidates, on research proposals, and for SSST students on a brief motivation letter detailing the interest towards dissemination activities.

The aim is to set up 4 heterogeneous groups, to which practical elements for the use of the video medium in scientific communication are provided. PhD Candidates and SSST students will work together to produce 4 short videos (one per group) starting from the scientific research topics proposed by the Ph.D. students in their applications.

Applications (HERE) are open from now until December 15, 2024, 24:00.

The selected Ph.D Candidates and SSST students will attend a kick-off event (at the beginning of February 2025) and five days of professional training sessions (Feb-May 2025), led by experienced professionals in the fields of communication and filmmaking.

The 4 short videos (5 min each) created will be shown and discussed in a number of secondary schools involved and presented in a dedicated session of the CinemAmbiente Festival, which will be held in Torino in June 2025.

The workshop is organized in the framework of FI(na)LMENTE 2.0, a project born from an idea of the Ph.D. program in Neuroscience of the University of Turin and the InTo Brain Association, in collaboration with the Doctoral School of the University of Turin and the School for Advanced Studies of the University of Turin ‘Ferdinando Rossi’ (SSST), together with CinemAmbiente Festival, promoting the use of videos as a means to communicate scientific research.
