Breakfast Seminars - programme

    • Goal of the seminar series is to stimulate the scientific exchange within the SSO department.
    • The seminar is held on a weekly basis, right after the research fellows breakfast, on Tuesdays in the Wormhole Db 162 and on Webex: 9:45, 25-30 minutes plus questions/discussions
    • Attendance is open to everyone.
    • Presentations are given by RFs, YGTs, regular staff, contractors, and trainees.
    • All active scientists are encouraged to regularly present. Presentations should be either about an interesting paper from their field of research, or a part of their own current work (e.g., a figure or paper draft), an interesting paper they have recently read, a summary of the scientific highlights of a conference, or some other scientifically interesting discussion topic.
    • The breakfast seminar may also serve as a forum for an informal presentation of work by Faculty Visitors.
    • This is the perfect place to introduce new arrivals to the whole science crew. Looking forward to meeting you!
