# A six-slide outline for eight minutes

| Slide | Explain | Suggested time | Suggested speaker |
|---|---|---:|---|
| 1. Question and source | Precise primary question; synthetic or other data source; why it matters | 0:45 | A |
| 2. Design diagram | Assignment or sampling, animals or groups that received separate treatment assignments, or were selected separately for observation, blocks/groups and repeats | 1:15 | A |
| 3. Model and check | Why this model; one diagnostic decision and one sensitivity comparison | 1:15 | B |
| 4. Main figure and estimate | Named comparison, units, interval, population/time and practical meaning | 1:45 | B |
| 5. Follow-up experiment | Allocation, numbers of animals or groups assigned to each treatment, meaningful target, two simulation assumptions and omitted features | 2:00 | C |
| 6. Recommendation and limitation | What evidence supports, remaining uncertainty and next useful information | 1:00 | C |

Total: **8 minutes**. Use fewer slides if they explain the question clearly. This structure is a starting point, not a slide-count requirement.

## Question practice

Prepare a one-sentence answer to each:

- What was assigned separately to treatments or sampled, and how many units were there?
- Exactly which mean, probability, difference or ratio is your main result?
- Which assumption has the largest consequence for your conclusion?
- How does your sensitivity comparison help assess it?
- What changes in the follow-up study compared with the analysed study?
- What information would you gather before approving a real study?

A limitation belongs beside the result it qualifies, rather than only on a final slide. A short, clear answer is preferable to reading model output aloud.
