Communicating Scientific Results in LaTeX

Communicating Scientific Results in LaTeX [tex, bib] [pdf]

I recently gave a short 15-minute presentation as part of the Optical Sciences 2013 Community Speakers series on ways to extend the usefulness of LaTeX to improve communication. This was given alongside another presentation focusing on what LaTeX is and how to get starting using it, so I veered into topics perhaps more interesting to an already-initiated audience. I included concrete step-by-step instructions on getting started with Beamer and BibTeX, as well as cursory (and flashy) examples of chemfig and pgfplots with generating code presented side-by-side.
