Informal Discussion at ESO
Quick overview
The Informal Discussion is on Wednesdays between 10:00 - 10:30 in the ESO library (only in-person). The format of the Informal Discussion is supposed to informal. To that end we ask:
- Use white board -- to draw and for explanation is highly encouraged
- Only 3 printed plots/slides -- we would prefer not to use the projector to keep distinct from a "talk style" presentation
- Any topic -- science or of general interest you would like to discuss is welcome
- 15 - 20 minutes presentation -- to allow for a short but lively discussion with the audience (from senior faculty staff to grad students)
- Interjecting questions -- we welcome questions from the audience throughout the discussion
- General introduction to topic -- the audience will be general and made up from members of the Garching campus (inc. e.g. MPE/MPA)
- Higher level discussion of the topic is, of course, welcome after the general introduction.
- Move to science coffee at 10:30 -- the discussion will close after 30 minutes, and continue into the science coffee
