Graduate Student / Postdoc Seminar
This seminar is meant to benefit young mathematicians, particularly graduate students and postdocs. It aims to accomplish the following:
- provide a venue for talks that young mathematicians will understand
- expose students to areas of research at the Courant Institute
The research talks should be fairly introductory and accessible to students and non-specialists in the audience.
If you would like to give a talk or ask a question about the seminar, please contact one of the seminar organizers:
- Aidan Lau (al8344@nyu.edu)
- Lev Fedorov (lef9190@nyu.edu)
Seminars are at 1pm in Warren Weaver Hall 1302. Pizza and drinks will be served before/after the talks. Historical events prior to 2010 for this seminar are available here.
Seminar Organizer(s): Aidan Lau, Lev Fedorov
