Condensed Matter and Complex Systems (CMCS) seminars
About Condensed Matter seminars
This is a weekly series of informal talks given primarily by members of the institute of condensed matter and complex systems, but is also open to members of other groups and external visitors. The aim of the series is to promote discussion and learning of various topics at a level suitable to the broad background of the group. Everyone is welcome to attend.
For more information on these seminars, please contact rodrigo.rivasbarbosa [at] ed.ac.uk (Rodrigo Rivas-Barbosa) or Joseph.Knight [at] ed.ac.uk (Joseph Knight).
