The beginning of Psst! seminars 2011-2012!

Dear CS Academics and PhD students
It is that time of the year when we start running our weekly Psst! seminars (PhD Students Short Talks).

Last year we had good (and constantly increasing) attendance. Seminars are usually fun and informative to attend, but remember that IT IS COMPULSORY TO ALL PHD STUDENTS TO GIVE ONE SUCH TALK EVERY YEAR.

FORMAT: as last year every speaker will have 15 minutes (including questions time), projector and laptop with ms PowerPoint will be provided. Seminars will happen in one of the lecture theatres. I will also bring tea and biscuits.

DATES: Below you can find the first version of the calendar (very likely to be changed). The most recent calendar is in the gDoc here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ano1xpvvLIiKdGpqbVlYbGlHaWtMOUU0b1UyX0Y0LWc&hl=en_US

WEEKDAY: last year we met on Thursdays 1:15PM, and if there will be no objections, we will continue meeting on Thursdays.

ORDER: as last year the 2nd year students will present first followed by everyone else. If you cannot present on a given date, please let me know as soon as you can.



++NOTICE TO ANYONE WHO WILL BE RUNNING STUDIES ANY TIME SOON:

++WE'VE BUILT A DIGITAL NOTICEBOARD TO ADVERTISE OUR STUDIES (bit.ly/noticeboard):
- over last few weeks we've build a digital noticeboard to advertise experiments to participants
- right now researchers can add studies, and students can sign up to email notifications.
- system is in beta testing, but we are planning to advertise it to students next week.

-if you are running a study, or about to run a study - please post it in the system
