	Here's Oprah's speech.  We've color coded it to the ABT Format:  http://www.scienceneedsstory.com/2018/01/08/125-oprah-gives-an-abt-tour-de-force/
11:14:40 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Reminder:  I'll have all of these links up on the Resource Page after class:  http://abtframework.com/abt-framework-course-round-28-georgia-ctsa/
11:28:23 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	I call this "building your case" and then presenting your summary at the end - great for communicating with other scientists, but not the general public.
11:29:50 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	Even if communicating with other scientists - it is much easier to absorb information when it's offered as WHAT, then HOW (e.g., readability of Methods in papers)
11:29:53 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Once again, this is brainstorming time!  Add your notes on these ABTs to chat.  Even if you're not sure if a note is correct, add it anyway, it might spark something in someone else.
11:30:30 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Anyone care to take a shot at what the Ultimate and Proximate goals are?
11:31:14 From  Emeli Anderson  to  Everyone:
	ultimate goal = improve development of vaccines against TB & other vax; proximate = understand immune response to BCG
11:32:13 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	You nailed it Emeli.  :)
11:34:21 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	I'd like to see more of the proximate goal in the blue material, maybe as an IF/THEN.  If we understand more of the immune response THEN we can....
11:36:15 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Then you could logically chain that to the But.  BUT we don't understand enough BECAUSE...
11:38:36 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	To avoid details - Randy defined: Communication is about approximation, whereas Science is about accuracy. So, for general ABT's, think about it as ‘approximation’
11:38:45 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Side note:  Our goal by the end of the class is that you'll be able to read an ABT in these ABT Builds and consistently beat Randy to the notes.  We want it to start growing into intuition through repetition.
11:41:43 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Ultimate goal:  Understanding infant mortality risk.
11:42:12 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	It’s recommended you read this excerpt from Houston, We Have a Narrative and get an understanding of the cABT (Conversational ABT):  http://www.storycirclestraining.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/THE-3-FORMS-OF-THE-ABT.pdf
11:43:55 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	Think of the cABT as the skeleton of the story, stripped of all the specifics.  We use the cABT to make sure you have a clear story skeleton that's not convoluted.
11:45:07 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	For the cABT, use zero specifics.  Substitute any specifics with words like "thing" or "stuff."  The Flesch reading ease score for a cABT should be low enough for a 4th grader to easily understand it.
11:47:16 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	cABT:  We need a thing to do good stuff, but we're missing that thing, therefore we need to get it.
11:48:52 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	cABT: We have a great tool, but are not using it, therefore we should use it.

	Everyone, type in your 1 thing into chat!

11:53:18 From  Mike Strauss  to  Everyone:
	Or is it we don't have the researchers?
11:53:48 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	Aren't researchers, 'tools’ as well?
11:54:31 From  Mike Strauss  to  Everyone:
	Problem is not "on track"
11:56:08 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	cABT: We have a goal, but current approach does not work
11:56:28 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	So Randy broadened this out to trajectory as the Christmas Tree.  Everything else can fit on trajectory as an ornament:  researchers, training, tools, etc.
11:56:59 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	That's generally what you have to do when you have a bunch of different problems - broaden out until you find the Christmas Tree.
11:57:10 From  Mike Strauss  to  Everyone:
	We have an ambitious goal and if we had the research tools and human capacity we could end TB by ___, but we are not on track to achieving that goal, therefore we need to
11:58:08 From  Matthew David  to  Everyone:
	We might have time for a question or two for a Q&A.  Feel free to post any questions for Randy in chat.
11:58:13 From  Mike Strauss  to  Everyone:
	We know our goal but are not on track to meet it, thereore...
11:59:01 From  Marlis R Douglas  to  Everyone:
	How can scientists reduce detaily’ness?
11:59:41 From  Mike Strauss  to  Everyone:
	That's the most difficult challenge but searching for the DZ helps
12:00:33 From  Patricia Zerra  to  Everyone:
	great class, thanks!
