POETS Corner 2012
POETS stands for Processes, Observations, Experiments, Theories and Solutions. Talks / discussions are informal and may relate to work in progress or unfinished, or to recent observations, ideas for grant proposals etc. Any topic of interest to any researcher in NOCS is of interest to POETS Corner.
We encourage talks from visitors and collaborators as well as NOC staff and PhD students. So if you have a visitor coming to NOCS who could give a POETS talk, then please get in contact with
All seminars take place on Thursdays at 2pm in room 074/02 unless stated otherwise.
