This semester seminars will be presented in a hybrid format: most of the seminars will be held remotely via Zoom, but a few of them will be in person (Rieveschl Hall, 502). Seminars will be presented on Mondays at 4:00 pm EST, with an extended Q&A session with graduate students after the seminar (5:00-5:30 pm).
