About Your Instructor

Hi! I'm Dr Tullio Rossi, award-winning science communicator, marine biologist and graphic designer. As Founder of the science communication agency “Animate Your Science”, I help researchers tell their story to the world.
Our engaging video animations and eye-catching graphics make science understandable for everyone, reaching millions of people around the world, thereby creating a real-life impact.
I have been giving workshops for 6 years, and I'm excited to share my best knowledge and tips with you in this online course!
Testimonials
I personally invited Dr. Tullio Rossi to Xiamen University (China) to deliver a 5-week long course in science communication and media. I would highly recommend Dr. Tullio Rossi’s science communication and media course for any university or research lab.
He provides participants with highly critical skills that are often neglected by the scientific community yet are absolutely crucial for career scientists - the ability to effectively communicate one’s research.
Dr. Rossi is a very personable individual and has a way of working with participants that puts them at immediate ease and encourages even the shyest of people to speak up and get involved.
This course is by far one of the most useful ones I’ve attended and would urge any institution involved with developing future scientists to bring Dr. Rossi over.

I was expecting a 4-hour workshop starting at 5 AM to be tough to get through, but time has flown by, and I feel like I have lots of tools I can apply to my work going forward.
Thank you Tullio.

I submitted my first ever poster at a technical conference and not only received many compliments, but also won two poster prizes!
I just wanted to say thank you for your help, and I am sure that I will continue to make good use of all the information for many years to come.
