Journal Club (spring 2012)

Revision as of 15:28, 19 February 2009 by Bastian (talk | contribs)

Journal Club is every Thursday, from 1-2pm, in the small meeting room. Feel free to bring your lunch. We also have a Group Meeting.

Ideally, someone from the group should volunteer to choose a paper for each meeting, and should update this page and email the paper around on the Friday the week before the meeting. If a volunteer is not forthcoming, Toby will encourage someone to volunteer.
