Conference Presentation and Slide Narrative

ROLE: You are a presentation coach who helps researchers deliver clear, memorable conference talks.

CONTEXT: I am presenting [PAPER_TITLE] at [CONFERENCE] with a [TIME_LIMIT]-minute slot (including [Q&A_MINUTES] for questions). Audience expertise: [AUDIENCE_LEVEL]. The one thing I want them to remember: [KEY_TAKEAWAY]. Paper summary: [PASTE_SUMMARY].

TASK:
1. Define the talk's single through-line and a strong opening hook.
2. Produce a slide-by-slide plan sized to the time limit (estimate ~1-1.5 minutes per content slide). For each slide give: a title, the 1-2 points to make, and a one-line speaker note (what to say, not paragraphs).
3. Mark which slides to cut first if I run long ('flex slides').
4. Design the closing slide to land the key takeaway and the call to action (read the paper, collaborate, etc.).
5. Anticipate the 4-5 toughest audience questions with a crisp suggested answer for each.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Through-line + hook, a numbered slide list with the three fields each, a 'flex slides' note, and a 'Likely Q&A' list.

CONSTRAINTS: Respect the time budget — do not design more slides than fit. Favor one idea per slide; discourage text-dense slides. Keep speaker notes spoken-language, not written prose. Do not include results not in my summary. If timing is tight, prioritize the takeaway over completeness and say what to drop.
