Setting Up JoVE Content with MS PowerPoint

  • Log into your JoVE account and find the video you want to link.
  • On the video page, click the Embed button to generate and copy the embed link.
  • Open your PowerPoint presentation and navigate to the desired slide.
  • Go to the Insert tab → click Link → choose Insert Link or Existing File or Web Page.
  • Paste the JoVE embed link into the address field and add a descriptive display text like “Watch the JoVE video: [Title]”.
  • Click OK. When presenting, clicking the link will open the video in a browser.
  • This approach preserves the video’s functionality while maintaining your presentation’s compatibility and portability.
