Big Ideas, Little Time: The Science of Powerful Pitches | Krishna Bhatt | TEDxBISV Youth
Krishna breaks down effective communication into three steps: contextualize, aim, and teach. He shows how we can simplify complex ideas into impactful messages. Krishna Bhatt is a nationally awarded high school researcher and writer who spends his time developing projects in the intersection of neuroscience and technology. Currently a sophomore at BASIS Independent Silicon Valley, he spent the last five years competing in research symposiums and business challenges–dedicating months to a project before presenting it in a few critical minutes. Krishna is highly engaged in the science fair community, co-founding the BISV Science Fair Club to guide middle schoolers, and is on a mission to ensure that his research will leave a positive and tangible impact for patients around the world.
