Seminars are held on
Fridays at noon in the Physics Room 299 this semester.
The seminars are given by Duke Physics graduate students and post-docs
and run between 20 and 40 minutes in length. The atmosphere is intended
to be friendly and that of a learning experience for everyone involved.
No faculty attend the seminar, to enhance the atmosphere of a meeting of
equals.
All Duke
Physics graduate students are strongly encouraged to attend and all
post-docs are invited.
Lunch, usually pizza, is provided.
