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. Several times in each semester the Wine & Cheese Seminar will be devoted to the work of JHU graduate students. These sessions will contain three talks each 15 minutes long, with 5 minutes for questions.

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 (Directions can be found here: How to get here)

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.)

Spring 2022 Schedule

This Spring's Wine(less) and Cheese(less) will be a combination of Zoomed and in person presentations as the (ever-changing) rules permit, and at the discretion of the speaker. Zoom invitations are sent the previous Friday, and again on Monday morning. Note that the Zoom session starts a quarter hour before the start of the talk. As we still have not solved the problem of distributing wine and cheese electronically, the sessions are officially wineless and cheeseless. Of course, if you are Zooming in, we encourage you to lift a non-virtual glass in honour of our speakers.
