      I have given talks about Fusion at universities in Bath and London and done projects with local schools. I also have talked to people from the University of the Third Age, which is a club for us grey-haired brigade. I do rather enjoy giving these talks. regards Robin

      Part of being a researcher is sharing the work I do with other people, so I have to give presentations about it to people at my university quite regularly. I also go to international conferences where other researchers from around the world go to share their work. We all do presentations and listen to the other presentations, then have time to talk to eachother as well. The first one I went to last summer in Australia and the next one I will go to is in the Netherlands in September.
      We can also publish our work in specialist magazines called journals.
