2
3	## Overview
4
5	Scientific presentations are a critical medium for communicating research, sharing findings, and engaging with academic and professional audiences. This skill provides comprehensive guidance for creating effective scientific presentations, from structure and content development to visual design and delivery preparation.
6
7	Key Focus: Oral presentations for conferences, seminars, defenses, and professional talks.
8
9	CRITICAL DESIGN PHILOSOPHY: Scientific presentations should be VISUALLY ENGAGING and RESEARCH-BACKED. Avoid dry, text-heavy slides at all costs. Great scientific presentations combine:
10	- Compelling visuals: High-quality figures, images, diagrams (not just bullet points)
11	- Research context: Proper citations from research-lookup establishing credibility
12	- Minimal text: Bullet points as prompts, YOU provide the explanation verbally
13	- Professional design: Modern color schemes, strong visual hierarchy, generous white space
14	- Story-driven: Clear narrative arc, not just data dumps
15
16	Remember: Boring presentations = forgotten science. Make your slides visually memorable while maintaining scientific rigor through proper citations.
17
18	## When to Use This Skill
19
20	This skill should be used when:
21	- Preparing conference presentations (5-20 minutes)
22	- Developing academic seminars (45-60 minutes)
23	- Creating thesis or dissertation defense presentations
24	- Designing grant pitch presentations
25	- Preparing journal club presentations
26	- Giving research talks at institutions or companies
27	- Teaching or tutorial presentations on scientific topics

29	## Slide Generation with Nano Banana Pro
30
31	This skill uses Nano Banana Pro AI to generate stunning presentation slides automatically.
32
33	There are two workflows depending on output format:
34
35	### Default Workflow: PDF Slides (Recommended)
36
37	Generate each slide as a complete image using Nano Banana Pro, then combine into a PDF. This produces the most visually stunning results.
38
39	How it works:
40	1. Plan the deck: Create a detailed plan for each slide (title, key points, visual elements)
41	2. Generate slides: Call Nano Banana Pro for each slide to create complete slide images
42	3. Combine to PDF: Assemble slide images into a single PDF presentation
43
44	Step 1: Plan Each Slide
45
46	Before generating, create a detailed plan for your presentation:
47
48	```markdown
49	# Presentation Plan: Introduction to Machine Learning
50
51	## Slide 1: Title Slide
52	- Title: "Machine Learning: From Theory to Practice"
53	- Subtitle: "AI Conference 2025"
54	- Speaker: Dr. Jane Smith, University of XYZ
55	- Visual: Modern abstract neural network background
56
57	## Slide 2: Introduction
58	- Title: "Why Machine Learning Matters"
59	- Key points: Industry adoption, breakthrough applications, future potential
60	- Visual: Icons showing different ML applications (healthcare, finance, robotics)
61
62	## Slide 3: Core Concepts
63	- Title: "The Three Types of Learning"
64	- Content: Supervised, Unsupervised, Reinforcement
65	- Visual: Three-part diagram showing each type with examples
66
67	... (continue for all slides)
68	```
69
70	Step 2: Generate Each Slide
71
72	Use the `generate_slide_image.py` script to create each slide.
73
74	CRITICAL: Formatting Consistency Protocol
75
76	To ensure unified formatting across all slides in a presentation:
77
78	1. Define a Formatting Goal at the start of your presentation and include it in EVERY prompt:
79	- Color scheme (e.g., "dark blue background, white text, gold accents")
80	- Typography style (e.g., "bold sans-serif titles, clean body text")
81	- Visual style (e.g., "minimal, professional, corporate aesthetic")
82	- Layout approach (e.g., "generous white space, left-aligned content")
83
84	2. Always attach the previous slide when generating subsequent slides using `--attach`:
85	- This allows Nano Banana Pro to see and match the existing style
86	- Creates visual continuity throughout the deck
87	- Ensures consistent colors, fonts, and design language
88
89	3. Default author is "K-Dense" unless another name is specified
90
91	4. Include citations directly in the prompt for slides that reference research:
92	- Add citations in the prompt text so they appear on the generated slide
93	- Use format: "Include citation: (Author et al., Year)" or "Show reference: Author et al., Year"
94	- For multiple citations, list them all in the prompt
95	- Citations should appear in small text at the bottom of the slide or near relevant content
96
97	5. Attach existing figures/data for results slides (CRITICAL for data-driven pr
