Dear all,
 
 
 
I am pleased to announce the resurrection of the Applied Optics Group
 
Seminars - colloquially known as "Optical Lunches."
 
 
 
Time: Alternate Wednesdays at 1pm
 
 
 
Place: Room 203, Tower (the Tower's only lecture theatre)
 
 
 
Starting: Wednesday 14 November
 
 
 
I am going to need willing volunteers to give talks. I would also like
 
folks to think of external speakers they would like to invite to give a
 
talk. As a rough guide, academics might give a talk once every year or so,
 
post-docs every year or two, postgrads once every two or three years. I'm
 
very keen to get good external speakers.
 
 
 
Now that the Applied Optics Group is in multiple locations (in multiple
 
buildings), it is more important than ever to keep everyone abreast of
 
what's going on. The ever-increasing amount of cross-disciplinary work
 
provides a fantastic opportunity for researchers to hear talks in new
 
areas.
 
 
 
Talks are usually very informal---they can be as short as 15 minutes,
 
though we have the room booked for an hour. Tea and biscuits will be
 
available afterwards in the lab next door.
 
 
 
Talks will be once every two weeks. The list of forthcoming talks is here:

Cheers,

Optics & Photonics Group Lunchtime Research Seminars

As the Optics & Photonics Group is in multiple locations (in multiple buildings), it is more important than ever to keep everyone abreast of what's going on. The ever-increasing amount of cross-disciplinary work provides a fantastic opportunity for researchers to hear talks in new areas.

Talks are usually very informal - they can be as short as 15 minutes; usually 30-40 minutes is about right. Alternatively, if you want to give a short talk, then we can run a session with two short (15-20 minute) talks. We have the room booked for an hour.

Talks will be every week during the seminar season.
