To Members:
Download the Seminar Schedule for this semester here. There will be
two clusters (Optics/Vision and Complex Systems) alternating schedules. A
copy is posted in the tackboard. Please prepare well for the seminars.
Choose interesting published topics and practice proper delivery. This is
part of the professional training of a physicist. You will greatly need it
when you present in conferences.
Thank you.
