This semester, all of our seminars will be streamed on Zoom, taking place on Fridays. Additionally, staff on campus will have the opportunity to attend these sessions directly from room Kelvin. Most sessions will commence at 3 PM CET, though it is worth noting that certain variations may arise due to participation of speakers across various time zones. To ensure you don't miss out, kindly refer to the schedule for any updates. We hope that you will find the talks as exciting as we do.
The schedule for the seminars is presented below. The seminars are 30 minutes long, with 10-15 minutes allocated for questions and discussion at the end.
