Upcoming JBCA and Schuster Colloquia - Spring 2010

JBCA Colloquia begin at 3pm every Wednesday in the Sir Bernard Lovell Seminar Room (3.225) in the Alan Turing Building, unless otherwise stated. Tea, coffee and biscuits are served from 2.45pm.

Immediately after each Colloquium there is normally a "Meet the Speaker" session, where students have the chance to chat with the colloquium speaker about their talk or more generally about their subject area. This session is for students only.

Schuster Colloquia normally start at 2:30pm and take place in the Bragg Lecture Theatre in the Schuster Building.
