The format of the seminar is meant to be light. Every two weeks during a one-hour session, two speakers give relatively short presentations, about 20-25 minutes plus questions. In most cases, we try to have two different topics during each session.

Your contribution to the seminar is most certainely welcome, please get in contact

We thank all the contributors to our online seminar. Most talks have been recorerded and can be viewed here.
