CAS Wine and Cheese Seminars

The JHU/STScI CAS Wine and Cheese Seminars take place in Bloomberg 462 every Monday at 3:30 pm Eastern. Each week, there will be either one speaker, giving an hour-long presentation (50+10), or two speakers, each giving a half hour (25+5) presentation. Hour-long speakers will be invited by the committee, and the half-hour speakers will comprise both local researchers and visitors with a wide range of scientific interests.

There will be wine, cheese, and other refreshments to go along with the talks and discussions. Should you have any questions, comments, or speaker suggestions, please contact kkuntz1 at jhu.edu.

Where: Bloomberg 462

When: Every Monday at 3:30 pm

Who: Everyone is welcome

Format: Keynote/PPT, PDF, or blackboard format. (Speakers may use their own laptops, and we will check that the display works ahead of time. Please have slides available online or on a portable drive in case we need to use a different computer.)

Fall 2024 Schedule

This Fall's Wine and Cheese presentations are in person. We are likely to continue running a zoom session as well for viewers that are, by necessity, remote. Zoom invitations will be sent the previous Friday, and again on Monday morning. Note that the Zoom session starts a quarter hour before the start of the talk.
