The document describes the process of preparing a science presentation for a conference. It shows an researcher receiving feedback from colleagues on their presentation, including suggestions to add the latest research findings, include a crucial piece of data, and mention a new model approach. Later feedback indicates the presentation has too many slides and needs to be cut down. This depicts the iterative process of revising a presentation based on input from others.

44. Presentation on subject ABC
Financial implications of ABC
This is to report the status of project ABC.
There is very slow progress in project ABC. The
project does not meet our business needs. A review
of the set up is required. A lot of money was wasted
on launching the project. We need more
involvement of the team members.
