Program

The meeting will follow the usual format, that is, at the start of the meeting those wishing to make a presentation will be invited to write their name and talk title on the whiteboard. With that complete, the Session Chair will select a speaker to give their talk. This process will continue until all presentations have been made.

Talks are limited to 10 minutes (8+2 min.) and may address recent publications, work in progress, or rough ideas. Note, this time limit will be strictly enforced using a timer, we do this so everyone will get a chance to speak.

It has become a tradition to couple the MWTGT with a similarly themed Physics Division colloquium. 

On Friday night, we will have a Get-Together Dinner at 6:30 PM.
