Revision as of 14:35, 29 October 2014

The aim of the club is costantly being defined. What we will try this semester, is to use this space to teach/inform each other about topics of general interest. Such topics might originate simply out of curiosity from browsing the arXiv, or from actual needs we might have in our work. Blackboard presentations are encouraged.

The Darklight Journal Club meets every Thursday at 2:00pm in the narrow room (you know what I mean), for the time being.
