Internal Seminars

This internal seminar series is an informal weekly event to which all staff and students are invited. Members of the Applied Mathematics Research Centre will give a short and accessible presentations on their research topics (25-30 min) by 10-15 minutes for questions and discussion. Undergraduate students are particularly encouraged to take this great opportunity to get in touch with cutting edge research in Magnetohydrodyamics and Mathematical Physics. If you wish to be included in the diffusion list, please contact A. Potherat.

Seminars take place every Wednesday at 16.00 in AS135 (unless otherwise stated).
