	\section{Overview of \LaTeX} % All sections/subsections automatically added to Table of Contents
	\subsection{Why \LaTeX?} 
	%------------------------------------------------
	\begin{frame}
		\frametitle{Why \LaTeX}
		Portability of Code
		\begin{itemize}
			\item <1-> Overleaf.com has made real-time / collaboration simple
			\item <2-> Easy to transfer between templates, layouts and operating systems
			\begin{itemize}
				\item \textbf{What You See Is What You Get...Everywhere!}
			\end{itemize}
			\item <3-> All code is just ASCII text
		\end{itemize}
		Logistics
		\begin{itemize}
			\item <4-> No need to worry about typesetting itself
			\item <5-> Content and layout are kept separate
			\item <6-> No need to worry about where to place figures
			\item <7-> Dynamic section, figure, item numbering etc.
			\item <8-> Citations are automatically added to bibliographies
		\end{itemize}
	\end{frame}
	%------------------------------------------------
	
	\subsection{Why Not \LaTeX?}
	%------------------------------------------------
	\begin{frame}
		\frametitle{Why Not \LaTeX}
		Learning Curve
		\begin{itemize}
			\item <2-> \LaTeX\ is a Turing-complete programming language
			\item <3-> For very (very!) short and straightforward writing, may not be worth overhead
		\end{itemize}
		Tables
		\begin{itemize}
			\item <4-> Tables are a bitch
			\item <5-> Merging/splitting cells can be difficult
			\item <6-> BUT as with everything \LaTeX, extensive online support
		\end{itemize}
		Aesthetics
		\begin{itemize}
			\item <7-> Picture placement/sizing can be tricky
			\item <8-> \LaTeX\ has its fair share of quirks
		\end{itemize}
	\end{frame}
	%------------------------------------------------
	
	\subsection{A Few \LaTeX\ Features}
	%------------------------------------------------

				% or 
				\newcommand{\sem}[2][M\!,g]{\mbox{ $[\![ #2 ]\!]^{#1}$}}
				\sem[M',g]{walks}

	\section{Bibliography/ Reference Management}
	\subsection{BibTeX and Biber}
	%------------------------------------------------
	\begin{frame}[fragile]
		\frametitle{From PDF to citation}
		Adding an article from Google Scholar is simple
		\begin{itemize}
			\item Copy the BibTeX key
			\item Paste the key into JabRef
			\item Download the PDF and rename it with the citation key
			\item Add the BibTeX key to the BibTeX file
		\end{itemize}
		
		\begin{block}<2-> {Easy Citations}
			Typing the \verb|\cite| command within \LaTeX:\\~
			\verb|This statement requires citation \cite{p1}.| \\
			Automatically produces
			\begin{itemize}
				\item This statement requires citation \cite{p1}.
				\item And adds it to the bibliography
			\end{itemize}
			\footnotesize{
				\begin{thebibliography}{99} % Beamer does not support BibTeX so references must be inserted manually as below
					\bibitem[Smith, 2012]{p1} John Smith (2012)
					\newblock Title of the publication
					\newblock \emph{Journal Name} 12(3), 45 -- 678.

	\subsection{Mendeley, Zotero and Biber}
	%------------------------------------------------
	\begin{frame}
		\frametitle{Mendeley, Zotero and Biber}
		\begin{itemize}
			\item Mendeley, Zotero, EndNote etc. all support BibTeX
			\item Changing reference styles can be done with a single line
			\item Supposed to use \texttt{biber} instead now
			\begin{itemize}
				\item Offers more stability
				\item Supports more character types
				\item Doesn't work with all bibliography packages, such as \texttt{natbib}
			\end{itemize}
		\end{itemize}
	\end{frame}
	%------------------------------------------------
	
	\section{Presentations and Posters}
	\subsection{Beamer/Tikz}

		\frametitle{Posters and Presentations}
		\begin{itemize}
			\item Going between presentations and posters is easy
			\item Can use tikz and beamer packages
			\item A slide is a block
			\item Useful if including lots of technical details
			\item Not always useful for more straightforward presentations
			\item But often less headaches than Microsoft
